Electronic Mail

Avoid One-Word Subjects

SUMMARY: E-mail with brief subjects may not get read.

If you want your electronic mail messages to be read by their intended recipients, you should consider creating subject lines that are more descriptive than just "Hello", "Hi", or "Info". Busy individuals scan through large numbers of emails daily, and they may see such subject lines and decide to skip your message. Also, many spam and virus-created e-mail messages use short, one-word subjects, and aggressive spam filters may automatically flag such messages as junk. Thus, your messages may never reach their recipients.
