Phone: Rooted Droid, OC @ 1.1 Ghz
do this

su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
cd /system/app
mv email.bak email.apk
mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
sync

May have to reboot for it to take full affect.
Also may want to check to make sure it is "email" or "Email" since it is case sensitive.
