  Bitnet Relay Chat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bitnet Relay Chat or Relay was a precursor to today's Internet Relay Chat and various instant messaging programs.
Before Relay was implemented, one could send a message to someone on another computer if one knew the other person's userid (i.e., screen name or login) and the name of the remote computer system the person was logged into.
To use Relay, one would send a message to a userid called "Relay." This Relay userid was an interface to the Relay program.

 Internet Relay Chat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Undernet's IRC server, ircu, is one of the few servers not descended from irc2.8 that are based on the original ircd; it was forked from the irc2.7 codebase.
A bouncer's purpose is to maintain a connection to an IRC server, acting as a relay between it and the connecting client.
Encryption: For the client-to-server leg of the connection SSL might be used (messages cease to be secure once they are relayed to other users on standard connections, but it makes eavesdropping on or wiretapping an individual's IRC sessions difficult).

Although there are some systems which have been around for some time (BRC - Bitnet Relay Chat and IRC - Internet Relay Chat), there has not been any real move to bring them together under a single protocol.
Also in a relay situation, it is quite possible that a server will become bogged down trying to keep up with just one connection and reduces the performance on an overall scale to all users relying on it.
It is therefore recommended that user connections be subject to some sort of monitoring and flood control to stop them dumping large amounts of spurious data and causing the server to slow down.

 Internet Relay Chat (IRC) History - How Invented, Jarkko Oikarinen
Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is the most widely used Internet chat system, and as seems often to be the case with Internet technologies, was developed by a graduate student, this time from Europe, named Jarkko Oikarinen at the University of Oulu, Finland.
During the summer of 1988, Oikarinen was working at the university Department of Information Processing Science, where he administered the department's Sun Unix server "tolsun.oulu.fi", running on a public access bulletin board system called OuluBox.
Partly inspired by Jyrki Kuoppala's "rmsg" program, and partly by Bitnet Relay Chat, Oikarinen decided to improve the existing multi-user chat program on OuluBox called MultiUser Talk (MUT), written by Jukka Pihl, itself based on the basic talk program then available on Unix computers.
