TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I tried to resist this thread, but can't. I think Ella and RFC 1983 are
(the most) correct.
While e-mail is still widely used, the convention is steadily leaning
toward email. I use email; used to use e-mail; *always* hated E-mail and
any other variation (such as eMail).
I don't understand the resistance to omitting the hyphen. Do those who
insist on the hyphen also write inter-net and mo-dem?
