An HBO Max intern mistakenly sent a test email to subscribers. They responded with stories of their own mishaps.

A mysterious and puzzling email with the subject line of "Integration Test Email #1" landed in the boxes of some HBO Max subscribers on Thursday. Just hours later, the company said that the message was intended to be an empty test email, and "yes, it was the intern." 

The unnamed intern quickly became the new star of HBO Max on social media, as hundreds of encouraging messages poured in to reassure the intern that mistakes happen, in all phases of careers. The body of the email in question contains but one sentence, "This template is used by integration tests only."
