emails

I am a person that does enjoy using email as a communication/conversational tool. Its very convenient to forward important messages and to communicate across the country without the long distance charge. I ask myself if I am able to aduquetly convey meaning through the ever endless emails that i recieve. The answer is 50/50 its not always on my behalf that i don't understand the meaning but the sender the other half of the time. Sometimes people don't proof read what they have just sent you and your reading this message and you interpret it in a way not intended. The one netiquette element that I learned about in the reading was using an automated reply. I think its good to have as a tool because if some one knows that thier emails are not getting through to you then they may try another way to get a hold of you. If i were to add one more to the list in the text book it be try to keep em nice n short .
