E-mail Emoji

Objects

A stylized, closed white envelope with a prominent blue letter 'e' emblazoned on the front. It serves as a universal shortcut for electronic messaging and digital correspondence.

Usage Context

Used to notify someone of an incoming message, prompt a user to check their inbox, or represent the act of sending business communication. It is frequently grouped with the 📩 or 📨 to distinguish between new, incoming, or sent mail.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2010, this icon was designed to mirror the interface of early web-based mail clients that used the letter 'e' to distinguish digital messages from traditional physical mail.
