Email Etiquette

I think most everyone could benefit from a lesson on email etiquette. I certainly needed some of the tips that were pointed out on the site, www.emailreplies.com. I liked the tips on this site although they were quite brief on many of them and feel that most people would gain a lot more from a detailed explanation of the tips. For example, I liked the detail incorporated in the “Core Rules” on the site, www.albion.com/netiquette/corerules.html. Any corporation dealing with customers or business relations via email on a regular basis should certainly enforce an email policy. Having proper email etiquette can give individuals and corporations that extra edge to get ahead of the “crowd”. We live in a generation where people have become so lazy in respecting grammatical rules because of the ease of incorporating acronyms in their text messages and emails it would be beneficial to teach these “netiquette” skills at an early age in middle schools and high schools.
