Incidentally, the reason that mail will never go away is that it is

Another indication of the continued importance of email: Whenever you
sign up for yet another service, you get asked for an email address.

mail to your address, because it is somehow blacklisted by their own
email service. Which did happen to me, with a large hotel chain.
