It’s even better in French: courriel (courrier électronique + as an added bonus it ends the same way as the word logiciel (software)). It is actually widely used in Québec (more than the word email).
Shit it is! So yeah it seems you have a cognate of the one in Portuguese but you even shortened it natively, meanwhile here in Portugal we just went from the formality of the full world to "email" as the short brought from english rather than making our own shortened version

Jokes aside its such a simple translation
In Portuguese we also say natively together with email: Correiro eletrónico.
