Writing emails
Remember that not all emails are informal. Business emails to people outside the company tend to be like
letters; they follow certain conventions (see below) and are written with punctuation and capital letters.
Errors can give a bad impression, so be sure to check your spelling using an online dictionary or the
spellcheck function of your email program.
