Jean d'Emaileux (1808-1902) was a French essayist, hawker, and inventor. Today he is considered to have been the true inventor of the email, despite the credit for this invention having been claimed by John the Email.
Early life
Jean was born in the Emaileux region of France to parents Renauld and Marguerite d’Emaileux.
Homosexual affairs
Throughout his time at the University of Poitiers, d’Emaileux gained a reputation for being romantically involved with other men. Though he denied such claims, he would write and publish essays on the subjects of personal liberation and sexual freedom, to wide acclaim.
Volume III of d’Emaileux’s diaries, all of which were published posthumously, contains the details of his homosexual relationships.
