You've Got Mail
This phrase and other familiar phrases
spoken by your computer including 'Welcome', 'File’s done' and
'Goodbye' were voiced by Elwood Edwards. He said his wife worked for
a company called Quantum Computer Services that became AOL and she
volunteered his voice in 1989 to the then future CEO, Steve Case. He
recorded the words on a cassette deck in his living room. The
familiar voice made it into a movie of the same name and continues,
even though Edwards has been retired for a few years.
