Netiquette
We have some special tips related to e-mail for this issue. They are
taken from The Net:User Guidelines and Netiquette by Arlene
Rinaldi.
- Never assume your e-mail messages are private nor that they can
be read by only yourself or the recipient. Never send something
that you would mind seeing on the evening news.
- Be professional and careful what you say about others. Email
is easily forwarded.
- Follow chain of command procedures for corresponding with superiors.
Don’t send a complaint via Email to the "top" just because you can.
- Focus on one subject per message and always include a pertinent
Subject Title for the message, that way the user can locate the
message quickly.
- Keep messages short and to the point.
- Office e-mail should not be used for chain letters.
