FRENCH BAN E-MAIL
The Culture Ministry of France has banned on the word "e-mail" in all government commication. (I wonder if email without the "-" would make them happier). Apparently, the word e-mail is considered too English. Instead, the word "courriel" (manufactured from "courier electronique") is preferred. Link

If they had invented email in the first place they wouldn't have had this problem.
