Netiquette Rules when Sending E-mails

1. An important rule to remember is not to share your email address with someone you don't know in real life.
2. Try to keep your password secret.
3. Always make sure your spelling is correct, re read what you have written before you click send.
4. Avoid using all caps, it is like yelling.
5. Avoid hurting someone's feelings by email, be careful and try not to make jokes or using inappropriate words in an email.
6. Respect other people's online rights and privacy.
7. Do not insult people by email. If someone insults you, be calm and take a time before you answer.
I understand that if I don't follow any part of this commitment my AL mail will be restricted.




Are Netiquette and real life etiquette similar?
In many ways, digital etiquette and the etiquette of the real world are the same. Both emphasize good manners and treating others with courtesy and respect.
