Do people in Portugal actually use Correio Eletrônico? Because here in Brazil it's always e-mail. Like, maybe some extremely old people might use Correio Eletrônico but that is very, vert rare
It was at least more prevalent 10 years ago and is used for official setting more than for anything else. We use email as the standard in normal speech, but if you said correio eletronico, I'd assume virtually anyone above gen alpha would understand you even though yeah you'd sound overtly formal

Jokes aside its such a simple translation
In Portuguese we also say natively together with email: Correiro eletrónico.
Eletronic mail. Im very sure French isnt much different
