Hi,
I'd like to know if the word 'email' is countable or uncountable.
It seems that a lot of people use it as countable noun.
Could anybody explain the usage?
Thanks in advance!!

Hi,
It certainly can be a countable noun.
I have three emails in my inbox.
It can be used as a plural form of itself.
I've got a lot of email in my inbox.
It is also a verb.
Email me when you get a chance.
I'm not sure how it can be used as an uncountable noun.
