I got an invite to Gmail when I was in university. Sadly I was at inbox zero for quite some time so I don’t have the Welcome to Gmail email anymore. It’s more than likely my oldest active account. I do have a Neowin account that still works from 2002 but I don’t frequent anymore. Macrumors is my most active old forum account, that’s from 2005. I had an ancient AIM and ICQ account but there’s no way I could remember the account details.

Ditto for the AIM and ICQ.

I think I read recently that ICQ was shutting down.

I still remember when AIM shutdown for good. That was a sad day.

I mean you could always make a new account to get the welcome email and photoshop the dates and times to make it look like it's older. I imagine the look of the email now is different from 2003, tho.
