Even before the start of the series, the phone microwave was already a time machine when Okabe and Daru invented the phone microwave. That's why Okabe and Daru were puzzled when the bananas had became jellyfied when they repeated the experiment with the bananas. The first D-mail happened because when Okabe was terrified by Kurisu's death and proceeded to send a mail to Daru, Daru in the Lab was performing a safety test on the microwave and he plugged his handphone on the microwave as well. Daru did mentioned that when he was performing the safety test, electrical spark phenomena occured. We knew that the electrical spark phenomena is essential for D-mail and time leap. Besides that, Okabe also observed the mail had been sent to a few days before July 28th in Daru's inbox. Based on the observations, Okabe concluded that he had sent a D-mail unintentionally and that D-mail had caused a world line shift which had prevented Kurisu's death.
