E-mailing

E-mailing a person for the first time may be a little bit tricky. When posting to anyone for the first time, there are several things to keep in mind. One should keep in mind that one may be violating a person’s carefully guarded privacy or violating a personal or company or other rule someone thought up. Be polite.

And be prepared for a wide range of welcomes from friendly to outright rude and crude. On the other hand, you may be extending a hand of friendship, which will develop into a relationship for life.

In general, there are three types of e-mail communities as defined by economic pressure. In these groups, there are three types of individuals:

  1. Those who like to talk via email and will accept almost anything at least once and enjoy the Internet for personal reasons;
  2. Those who are online for business; entertainment is the least of what they want to get online;
  3. Those who may be a member online purely for their own reasons and do not want to
  4. be bothered by anyone except the privileged few they let in.
