Email Etiquette
• awareness of conventions is important
• essence of email: immediacy
• remember: email is never dead…– messages are easily forwarded– messages are used as proof
• “That’s not what I meant”– think and pause before you send it– context and nuance are lost in email– easily perceived as rude, offensive, or harsh
