Summary
An email address before the Domain Name System provided .COM, .EDU, .GOV and similar addresses. The address "uw-beaver!teltone!dataio!holley" used the Unix-to-Unix copy program ( UUCP). The University of Washington's UNIX computer named uw-beaver was an open mail relay with a known IP address. An incoming email was copied to uw-beaver then to a computer at Teltone (a nearby manufacturing company) and finally to a computer at Data I/O and Michael Holley's email file. Data I/O registered data-io.com and Teltone registered teltone.com on Nov 17, 1986 and were in the first 50 .COM addresses assigned.
