I think he would probably grumble about it (I know I do), but he was a professor at Oxford. I've checked, and all of them have e-mail now even auxiliary professors. The University needs a way to communicate with them and so do their students. Today that means e-mail. So I think he would have to use it, but I do doubt he would like it - far too modern.
But then...this forum is a very modern sort of thing, and I like it despite my vitriolic condemnation of all things modern. So maybe Jack would too.

"Love loves unto purity...it strives for perfection, even that itself may be perfected - not in itself, but in the object...Therefore all that is not beautiful in the beloved, all that comes between and is not of love's kind, must be destroyed. And our God is a consuming fire...that only that which cannot be consumed may stand forth eternal." - George MacDonald
