Right,  I remember complaining about our 300 baud modems in high school,
talking to a PDP-11/70.  The teacher brought out some 110 baud modems
from a closet and threatened us with them...

But we didn't have e-mail then.  The first mail gateway I managed was 
DEC All-IN-1 to Western Union Easylink, over a 1200 baud modem, with a
two to three day turnaround to most of the customers we served. That
would have been in about 1989.

No e-mail viruses back then...  No spam either.
