Speed and Efficiency. Email lets you send and receive messages in seconds or minutes, making
conversations quick and efficient.
Serves as a record
Your email communication history is instantly searchable and essentially acts as an archive of your
historical messages. This means you can return to your emails at any time to look up specific
communications. Furthermore, you can categorize important emails to ensure they’re even easier to
find and reference later.
Privacy and security. Email also offers privacy and security features that make it a safe way to
communicate.

1. Email lacks a personal touch. While some things are better off sent as written and typed
messages, some things should be verbally relayed or written by hand in a note or letter.
2. Email can be disruptive. Going through each email can be disruptive to work as it does require a
bit of time. This disruption is decreased through the utilization of an email alert system.
3. Email cannot be ignored for a long time. The thing with email is that it needs constant
maintenance. If you ignore it, more and more messages will enter your inbox until it gets to the
point that your inbox is no longer manageable.
4. Email can cause misunderstandings. Because email does not include nonverbal communication,
recipients may misinterpret the sender’s message. This is particularly true of senders fail to go
through their messages before they send them.
5. Email messages can contain viruses. It’s best to be aware of this possibility so that you are
careful when opening messages from people you don’t know, or when downloading
attachments.
6. Email should be kept short and brief. This is especially difficult if you are one to send messages
that are too long.
7. Email requires timely responses. While some people tend to disregard messages, those that
require responses should be replied to as soon as they are received and read. If not, urgent and
important messages may be left untended.
