There are times when the focus tends to be on the message instead of the format of the e-mail. I understand that. However, when I've received e-mails that are totally devoid of punctuation and poorly written, I tend to view the individuals who sent them as careless or lazy. I never want anyone to view me in that same manner. Therefore, whether I am e-mailing a friend or my boss, I pay equal amounts of attention to the e-mails I send.Amanda Moss - WI7noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8810258364208087665.post-83311467762870390592013-03-22T21:28:23.982-07:002013-03-22T21:28:23.982-07:00This was a great reminder for myself about how my ...This was a great reminder for myself about how my emails are constructed.

Throughout this semester, I have learned so much about e-mails. I never knew that it was so important to structure your e-mail a certain way depending on your reader. When I am sending e-mails, I tend to type really fast. In the past, my only objective was to get my point across and ignore the rest. However, I no longer have that mentality. Every day I am improving my e-mails by structuring them in a more professional manner. <br /><br />Shelecia Parker<br />WI4 B&PAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8810258364208087665.post-5962434089833316522012-10-26T09:51:33.627-07:002012-10-26T09:51:33.627-07:00This information has been very benefical to me, es...This information has been very benefical to me, especially in your class.

This information regarding business emails was very informative and helpful. Like Kenny Hudson said, I prefer business emails to be short and precise, in other words "straight to the point." Even though business emails are direct and formal, I have learnt that I still need to be aware of how I present the email to another employee because presentation reflects the kind of person I am and want to be perceived as within the workplace.Dagur Jonssonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8810258364208087665.post-1622357095955761012012-10-18T18:46:42.090-07:002012-10-18T18:46:42.090-07:00Work emails, for me, are usually short and simple....Work emails, for me, are usually short and simple. There are times however that I have to send a proposal through email. With this class, I have leared certain things on email that I had never really thought of before.

I use email very often at work because I work in customer service. Some of the communication I do is on the telephone but most is in the email format. A helpful tip I was not aware of but will remember thanks to your great posting was in the complimentary close I should not capitalize the second word. This posting was very informative and very helpful for me.

Flushing my paragraphs to the left was the first change I incorporated. I also use a signature block in all of my emails for that professional look. I punctuate and capitalize in all of my emails, I guess old habits are hard to break. Readers of emails form opinions about the writer and it is important to make that good first impression.
