Please share some of yur etiquette tips for E-Mail?

Answer 1

No forwards. If you can't cut & paste the message it wasn't worth while sending.

No chain letters or get rich e-mails should be sent. Before you think Microsoft is going to send a check to you after you forward a message do a search online to see if it's BS.

No Caps.

There is a little thing called spellcheck.

Try using a little bit of the grammer skills that you learned in grade school. There isn't a need for long run on sentences that doesn't have any punctuation.

When sending a email think about it as if you actually had to pay to send a message. Now was a the mailbox full of stupid jokes that you just got done forwarding me something that you would have paid 39 cents to send me by snail mail?

Reply to a message in a timely manor.

Check your emails. You have a account. You gave out the address so people can contact you. Now check it to see if they are.

Answer 2

By the way, if you don't know what a smiley is, it's

:-)

or ;-) if you want to wink.

It may seem obvious to you when you are joking, but you shouldn't assume it will come across that way, unless you really know the person well.

Always better to smile or wink -- or even stick your tongue out at them, for which you use a p for the mouth.

:-p

As others have mentioned, using all caps is considered SHOUTING and should be used sparingly.

Don't assume that the reader still has the Subject line in mind, and treat is as the first half of a sentence. Begin the message with the whole thought, not a continuation.

Try to give meaningful subject lines, and change it when you and someone else have been replying back and forth and are now talking about something different.

Be as polite as you would in person. It's easy to type things in anger, forgetting that when you spew at people, they get hurt and angry back.

When you want to respond to specific things in a message, put your remarks in the body of their message, but on their own lines. Don't make them wade through looking for the thing you're responding to.

You are likely to get emails warning you of horrible viruses that will whipe out your hard drive, and that you should forward this dire warning to everyone you know.

These are hoaxes. Never just send them. Go to a search engine, and type email hoax. You'll get sites that list these, and you will probably find your email there. (The "SEND TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW" is a tip-off it's probably a hoax, as is the tendency to shout.)

You can type nettiquette into a web search engine and read more complete lists.

enjoy!

Answer 3

1. No attacks! Just because everyone else seemingly "attacks", i.e., (haters...) what they do not understand, doesn't mean I have to!
2. Lend a sympathetic ear...REALLY listen and hear what is being conveyed.
3. Give the benefit of the doubt rather than the other way around!
4. Be R . E. A. L!! Don't waste our valuable time with stupid stories designed to yank our chains...WHY LIE??!!
5. Treat others with RESPECT

And, there you have it! My tips for etiquette! (Oh, I forgot #6. A Sense of Humor....(no farting while sending emails, neither!)

Answer 4

I just treat emails like hand written letters. I use all the rules I learned in English and apply those. And I never put smileys in my messages. To me that says "I'm 12 and I have an email address."

Answer 5

If you say something because you are joking but it can be misconstrued please put a smilie.

Check your spelling, theres a button there for a reason.

Only use caps when you are yelling.

Make sure to sign appropriately (ex: Sincerely for work related and <3 for friend related)

Remember that everythign said is now documented so becareful.

Answer 6

Don't send all the stuff about how much money you could win or luck you will gain or love you will find only if you send the e-mail to x amount of people in x amount of hours and what they forgot to add x amount of bull-stupid!!! Oh and please use spell checker.

Answer 7

no chain letters, use acceptable greetings which comprise to whom it may issue, or pricey sir or madam, or pricey "whoever you already know". Use caps and decrease case even as necessary, basically use hardship-free grammar, like you've been writing a letter. date, signal it, that's fairly a lot it.

Answer 9

Answer 10
