While HBO Max’s programming has broken the Internet (sometimes, almost literally), the newfound streaming service caught some unexpected attention on Thursday — and not for a usual reason. Around 9/8c Thursday night, a mysterious email from HBO Max began to go out to (seemingly) all email addresses tied to active accounts on the streamer. The email was labeled “Integration Test Email #1” and included the following phrase: “This template is used by integration tests only.” The random and vague nature of the email quickly took the Internet by storm, with the phrase “Integration Test Email” trending on Twitter soon after the snafu occurred.
We mistakenly sent out an empty test email to a portion of our HBO Max mailing list this evening. We apologize for the inconvenience, and as the jokes pile in, yes, it was the intern. No, really. And we’re helping them through it. ❤️
