Comment(by filosofo):
The AP stylebook is probably being too conservative, if that's what it
recommends. My observation has been that tech-savvy people overwhelmingly
use "email" instead of "e-mail," and to confirm it, just compare the
number search results for "email" against "e-mail." Or compare the
following searches:
`'site:[URL of a site you respect] "e-mail"`
against
`'site:[URL of a site you respect] "email"`
