E-mail Etiquette

a. Messages should be short, concise, and to the point. Think of it as a telephone conversation, except you are typing instead of speaking. people may get tired talking for hours in telephone, but they would get much more exhausted if they had to spend hours reading long e-mails.

b. Don't use punctuation excessively

c. Certain abbreviations and smilies are commonly used in e-mail. Abbreviations are used to save keystrokes while smilies are simple strings of characters to convey the writer's emotions, which are used to depict a face. this smiley is a picture of a head laying on its side. The most common example is :-). The colon is the eyes, the dash is the nose, and the parenthesis is the mouth.

Abbreviations -> Meaning -> Smilies -> Meaning :

a. BTW -> By The Way -> :-) -> smiley face
b. FYI -> For Your Information -> ;-) -> wink
c. IMHO -> In My Humble Opinion -> :-| -> indifference
d. LOL -> Laugh Out Loud -> 8-) -> eye glasses
e. ROTFL -> Rolling On The Floor Laughing -> :-D -> shock or surprise
f. TTYL -> Talk To You Later -> :-( -> sadness or displeasure
g.TTFN -> Ta Ta For Now -> :-@ -> scream
h.TKS -> Thanks -> :-/ -> anger
i. Defly -> Definetly

d. E-mails often follow memo format, and salutations are often omitted. Informal e-mails often begin with the word 'Hi!'. Some e-mails use the sam salutations used in format letters such as 'Dear Miss Smith'.

e. For signatures, since it is not yet possible to sign e-mail, you can close your letter with the same informatin you put in a conventional letter, minus the signature. Another way to sign e-mail is put a quotation after your name, e.g. Anne - ' ... the secret to life is that there is no secret. " Your name and the information that follow is called your sig (short for signature), which may also contain your company name.

f. Don't forget to include your e-mail address and the address of the person you send your e-mail to.

g. Avoid sending e-mail that can cause you to be flamed. What does being flamed mean? It means that you have sent e-mail to a person that has caused that person to respond in many, not-so-nice-words.
Some characteristics of e-mail that can cause flaming are :
- Sending e-mail in all capitals. Use capital-letteres words in the equivalent of shouting in someone's ear.
- Making a comment about grammar or panctuation.
- Sending a mass-mailed advertisement or chain letter.
- Sending e-mail asking for the meanting of BTW or :-).
