Problem/Motivation

In issue #950534 Consistently use "email" instead of "e-mail" in Drupal participants arrived at a common agreement to follow global grammatical standards of English language and accept the "email" as the only valid form of this term. That happened 5 years ago in 2014.

However, today grepping for the /\se-mail/ regex pattern in the 8.8.x-dev core/ directory results 50+ occurrences again. (Results on Gitlab)

As suggested there, I open this new issue thread to post my patch against version 8.8.x-dev fixing these strings in a one-run batch.

The policy is at Industry-related words section of the Content Style guide

Change e-mail to email.
