It would appear that your copy of Word has an AutoCorrect entry for this
word. It is not present by default, however.

I'm not sure those versions even had AutoCorrect. AutoText was still being
called "Glossary" as late as Word 6.0, I think.

It isn't there by default in a U.K. installation of Word 97, Word 95, or the
16-bit ("ordinary") version of Word 6. Word 1 and 2 did not have autocorrect
but it isn't a standard entry in the glossary in those versions either. Word
6 only has 9 Autocorrect entries in it. It doesn't appear to be there now
(Word 2007).

Hello Suzanne, peter,

You are right that nothing exists in any version of word so far i come
across. The funny thing which i found is that if you type email and do
spell check it suggest it to change to mail BUT if you type e-mail ,
it treats as the correct spelling. In help of word, everywhere they
write e-mail and not email.

Just wanted to share this with you.

That suggests that perhaps the conversion is resulting from having
"Automatically use suggestions from the spelling checker" checked in Tools |
AutoCorrect Options. That, however, would assume that "email" is marked as
an incorrect spelling and that "e-mail" is the only suggested correction.
But "email" is NOT marked as incorrect in Word 2003 (it may be in some
earlier versions); I checked, and I don't have "email" in my custom
dictionary, so it must be in the built in lexicon.

All of which raises additional questions because I believe that the
"Automatically use suggestions..." option is a relatively new one, and I
would have thought that any version recent enough to have this option would
also have "email" in the lexicon. It could well be that "email" could have
been added to an exclusion dictionary to force the use of "e-mail," but that
theory may also fall down because if no (or multiple) spelling suggestions
are offered for words added to the exclusion dictionary. I tested with three
of my entries: "pubic," "abut," and "acknowledgement," with the following
results:

pubic: no suggestions (I would have hoped for "public")
abut: abuts, about, abet ("about" is what is meant)
acknowledgement: acknowledgements (guess I'd better add that one, too!)

So it's not impossible that this might be the result of having
"Automatically use suggestions" enabled and "email" in the exclusion
dictionary.

I can confirm that it is there in Word 2000 and not in Word 97 (and that
makes it "fairly recent" as far as I'm concerned)

Further, I didn't manage to get "email" to throw up a spelling error in any
earlier (1,2,6,95) Windows version I looked at, although that was using U.K.
English setup options etc. where available.

I'm pretty sure that "email" was never marked as an error (even though MS
obviously prefers "e-mail"), but my hypothesis of "Automatically correct"
combined with the exclusion dictionary seems like a possibility, albeit an
unlikely one.
