10 email etiquette rules every professional should know
 

The average US employee spends about a quarter of the work week combing through the hundreds of emails we all send and receive every day.
美国的员工评价每周会花四分之一的时间来处理每天收发的成百上千封邮件。

But despite the fact that we're glued to our reply buttons, career coach Barbara Pachter says plenty of professionals still don't know how to use email appropriately.
然而，尽管我们每天都在回复邮件，职业生涯指导师芭芭拉·帕切特却表示，许多职业人士仍不知道如何恰当地使用邮件。

In fact, because of the sheer volume of messages we're reading and writing each day, we may be more prone to making embarrassing errors — and those mistakes can have serious professional consequences.
事实上，由于我们每天都会阅读和书写大量的信息，我们可能更容易犯下令人尴尬的错误，而这些错误会导致严重的职业后果。

Pachter outlines the basics of modern email etiquette in her book "The Essentials Of Business Etiquette." We pulled out the most essential rules you need to know.
帕切特在她的《商务礼仪要点》一书中概述了现代电子邮件礼仪的基础知识。我们选取了你需要知道的那些最重要的规则。

1. Include a clear, direct subject line.
邮件要有清晰明了的主题

Examples of a good subject line include "Meeting date changed," "Quick question about your presentation," or "Suggestions for the proposal."
好的主题包括：“会议改期”“关于你简报的一些小问题”或“计划书建议”。

"People often decide whether to open an email based on the subject line," Pachter says. "Choose one that lets readers know you are addressing their concerns or business issues."
人们是否会打开一封邮件，通常取决于主题的内容，”帕切特说。“写标题时，要能让邮件接收者知道你的邮件是他们管鑫的问题，是和业务相关的事。”

2. Use a professional email address.
使用一个专业的邮件地址

If you work for a company, you should use your company email address. But if you use a personal email account — whether you are self-employed or just like using it occasionally for work-related correspondences — you should be careful when choosing that address, Pachter says.
帕切特指出，如果你为公司工作，你应该使用公司的电子邮件地址。但如果你使用个人的邮件账户，无论你是个体经营者还是只是偶尔使用它来处理工作相关的信件，在选择发送的邮件地址时应谨慎。

You should always have an email address that conveys your name so that the recipient knows exactly who is sending the email. Never use email addresses (perhaps remnants of your grade-school days) that are not appropriate for use in the workplace, such as "babygirl@..." or "beerlover@..." — no matter how much you love a cold brew.
你应该有一个含有你名字的电子邮件地址，这样邮件接收者就可以知道是谁发来的邮件。无论你多么喜爱以前创建的电子邮件地址，千万不要使用不适宜工作场所使用的电子邮件地址（也许是小学一直用到现在的昵称），如“babygirl@...”“"beerlover@...” 等，无论你有多喜欢喝啤酒，都不要用。

3. Think twice before hitting 'reply all.'
点“回复全部”前要三思

No one wants to read emails from 20 people that have nothing to do with them. Ignoring the emails can be difficult, with many people getting notifications of new messages on their smartphones or distracting pop-up messages on their computer screens. Refrain from hitting "reply all" unless you really think everyone on the list needs to receive the email, Pachter says.
帕切特说，没有人想要阅读20个与自己毫无相关的人发来的邮件。因为许多人的手机上都有新消息通知，电脑屏幕上也有弹出的消息提示，所以忽略这些邮件不太可能。尽量避使用免“回复全部”功能，除非你真的认为收件人列表里的每个人都需要接收这封邮件。
