1. Understand when to use email, phone, live discussion, and written documents. Different communication vehicles are best suited for different needs.
2. Avoid being inflammatory. Otherwise, don't use email.
3. Think carefully who you WANT to get the email and who SHOULD get the email.
4. Use cc, bcc and forwarding wisely.
5. Remember, email is potentially public record.
