" A note on email versus e-mail

Newly coined nonce words of English are often spelled with a hyphen, but the
hyphen disappears when the words become widely used. For example, people used
to write ``non-zero'' and ``soft-ware'' instead of ``nonzero'' and
``software''; the same trend has occurred for hundreds of other words. Thus
it's high time for everybody to stop using the archaic spelling ``e-mail''.
Think of how many keystrokes you will save in your lifetime if you stop now!
The form ``email'' has been well established in England for several years, so
I am amazed to see Americans being overly conservative in this regard. (Of
course, ``email'' has been a familiar word in France, Germany, and the
Netherlands much longer than in England --- but for an entirely different
reason.) "

im Englischen gibt's ja auch die Verwechslung mit Schmelzglas (Email) nicht. Ich jedenfalls stolpere häufig darüber, wenn ich statt "E-Mail" (Duden-Vorschlag) "Email" lese.

Grüße

Ulli
