The particular original post has a Cancel-Lock on it. https://web.archive.org/web/20151030....26_Cancel-Key Nur wenige Newsreader implementieren Cancel-Lock: Gnus slrn tin But by the time you figure it out, it's likely pretty ineffective.

Telnet and email (and other stuff) are a lot older than that. Yup, I used 'email' before the term even existed [1], in the very early 70s. [1] Many sources *imply* that the term 'email' was used by the alleged inventor (Ray Tomlinson) in 1971, but AFAIK that is just *current* use of the word/term 'email' to describe what happened then. I don't know of any actual *proof* that the term 'email' (any spelling) was actually used at the time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_email https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Tomlinson http://openmap.bbn.com/~tomlinso/ray/firstemailframe.html |

More realistically, "The Internet" exists only after TCP/IP was implemented, i.e after 1978, i.e at most 41 years, not 50. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_protocol_suite#Early_Implementation |
