I think 85% of the problem is that e-mail frees many people of normal social constraints. People will e-attack when they would never do so in person, or not in the same inappropriate manner. I also think sometimes people can write in a manner that sounds more harsh than they intend or realize, especially since there are no visual cues to the contrary as would be the case in a face to face.
