The problem is that when I entered University in 1974 I already had email on timesharing systems. One was a Honeywell GCOS system which had software from Bell Labs that included and email system using the command MAIL.This was the one that was connected to the ARPAnet.

And the other was on an IBM VM/370 CMS timesharing system and that email system was interconnected to other IBM systems in a network called BITNET where the first mailing lists were invented.

In 1976 my university installed their first UNIX system using 6th edition UNIX from Bell Labs. That had an email system that seemed to have been a simpler version of the GCOS mail command.

So all that shiva did as a kid was to reinvent email. Or more likely, he was exposed somehow to an existing email system since he obviously had access to timesharing computer systems. The only way to write code in 1978 was on timesharing systems and the occasional minicomputer.

He seems to be a fame seeker and I simply don't trust him because of his history.

Shiva is a fameseeker and has been for a long time.

Do not trust anything he says or does.

But the problem is that in 1974 there were already email systems, like the one from Bell Labs of Murray Hill, NJ where UNIX was invented. And the GCOS email system did use the same terminology of interoffice email that we use today. The terminology was printed on interoffice mail envelopes and the routing slips that you would attach to them with a paper clip. It was common terminology and I've seen it in business textbooks from the 1930s telling people how to write business letters.

Shiva said he did his work in 1978 in Newark. Check the map and see how close they were
