And the word "Email" has strong implications to actually putting a piece of paper in an envelope with stamp, and physically delivering it to their mailbox. But the world adapted and survived the change in the strong implications of the word "mail", somehow, and continues to turn on its axis.

How does e-mail have that implication when it specifically has e in front of it?

Because lots of words start with "e", like "envelope".

If I'd said "Electronic Mail" then maybe you would have a point, but I didn't.
