Module 2.1

I have 17 people coming for Christmas so I'm trying to get ahead of the game...

EMAIL

• I liked the information on Subject headings and have already used one of the suggestions. (URGENT: Information needed)
• I thought it was good information to indicate whether a response is required or not
• I liked the repeating information back differently to show comprehension
• I didn't realise that attachments are encoded/decoded
• I thought the inclusion of text idea could be useful - although it may encourage people to not read the full attachment.
• It says you shouldn't run .exe files which arrive via email unless you are certain of its source - I find this a bit misleading as one may receive a self propegating email from someone they know who doesn't know that their computer sent it.
• Never heard of annotating email - I use outlook which apparantly doesn't have this.
• I do keep copies of outgoing mail generally and am very adept at finding what I am looking for so I don't generally copy myself unless I need to take some action.

I thought there was useful information in this section - although a lot of it was information I already knew. I do think the writing style of these notes is great - in reading I am seeing things in a different light which is fantastic.
