Page 1: Ways to prevent email disasters(part two)

Before you send any more emails to your co – workers, make sure you finish with this whole list

first. You’ll certainly find everything here very helpful. Let’s now continue with a few more

instructions.

Gmail is here to save the day. If you’re a Gmail user, you’re in luck. It has an Undo

feature that’s definitely useful.

You can enable it in the settings of Gmail and you can set a timer to undo emails in 5,

10, 20 or 30 seconds.

If you’re going to get a long email thread, think about cutting them short to the most

recent emails.

That way, everything looks nice and neat both for you and your recipient. Plus, those

with snoopy eyes won’t see the whole conversation, saving you from sitting in the hot

seat of office gossip.

For emails, you can use them too. It’s okay to use them in a work environment, as long as the

message is about the get – together after work, or if the message is just a simple conversation.

If you’re going to send someone like a request or giving a notice, don’t use emoticons.
