VNET was a nationwide computer networking system deployed in the early 1980's and still in current, but highly diminished use. It was developed by IBM, and provided the main email and file-transfer backbone for the company throughout the 1980's and 1990's. Through it, a number of protocols were developed to deliver e-mail amongst time sharing computers over alternate transmission systems.
