Email doesn't have any other word that refers to a singular instance though.

With snail mail, a singular piece of mail is called a letter.

With email, a singular piece of mail is called ... an email.

Thus it is reasonable that many such pieces of email would be pluralized as emails, much like we call many pieces of snail mail letters.
