I read the problem as replacing one or more e's, not all e's.
That gets these additions:
becker -> bicker
complement -> compliment
complementary -> complimentary
empress -> impress
endorse -> indorse
enfield -> infield
enquire -> inquire
enviable -> inviable
freedman -> friedman
freeze -> frieze
kenney -> kinney
kettle -> kittle
meddle -> middle
peddle -> piddle
redden -> ridden
semper -> simper
whether -> whither
FWIW, my first pass at this was
perl -E'chomp(my @w=grep /[ie]/ && length > 5, readline); for my $w (r
+everse @w) { say "$w -> $_" for grep defined, @w{glob $w =~ s/e/{e,i
+}/r}; $w{$w}=$w }' unixdict.txt
