{jabbI'ID} still works just fine as we've been using it. E-mail really is a
data transmission. (Hmmm . . . I wonder if the "transmission" part of that
must be taken literally. That is, it must be transmitted on some frequency,
and not sent hard-wired.)
However, {QIn} also works for things like hand-written messages, which are not
covered by {jabbI'ID}.
