I use "courriel" daily at the House of Commons of Canada. It works
much better in French than "e-mail". From the Canadian point of view,
it's a sign that French can actually grow and accept influences
outside France (even if it hurts). "E-mail" is too close to the French
word for enamel.
That's it ! I am going to scrub "par avion" off all my air mail letters
from now on.
No more enamel either, I will use paint.
