E-mail etiquettes

Why do we need e-mail etiquette?

Proper email language will help you to project a professional image towards your internal and external customers.
E-mail that get to the point are much more effective than poorly composed emails.
Awareness of email risks will protect you from costly lawsuits.

Common e-mail tips:

Be very specific to use of bold, italic & underline font.
Line Spacing & Paragraph should be visually appealing & legitimate.
Give reply always with original message.
If multiple questions are asked in a single mail, reply just under the question & try to differentiate with color.
Always mention course of action when you are forwarding mail.
Use follow-up flags.
Never use email to discuss confidential information.
Do not give reply in mail when you are angry, you may regret it later but one the message sent you will not be able to recover it
