Here’s the full post from a professor who obviously get’s a lot of annoying emails.

– Choose an appropriate greeting
– Avoid rote apologies for missing class
– Proofread what you’ve written
– Sign with your full name, course number, and meeting time
– Don’t send unexpected attachments
– When you get a reply, say thanks

Have to say I’m not sure I follow every one of his suggestions.
