More email Tasks....

Work managed to interfere with my good intentions to get all the Module 2 tasks recorded onto this Blog a few days ago, anyway back at home again, so here we go.

OK, as I have mentioned before I am not a big user of email, but I explored all the different options. As far as using the cc & bcc and reply all functions goes, I have never had to use these before and until now wasn't really sure what the cc and bcc stood for, now I do and I still really don't foresee myself having any use for these functions in the near future, at least I know what the do now in case I do though.

The next ? was; In what ways can you ensure that an attachment you send will be easily opened?

If you keep your text attachments in either word or pdf format then everyone seems able to open them, myself included. For photos I usually alter there size, etc in photoshop to ensure a quick download for receivers (just in case, they have dial-up like me) which can sometimes take 30min to load a large unmodified photo, I really just don't have the time to wait.


As far as filters or rules that I have set up... Also very basic. NO SPAM!!




I had never bothered with setting up folders before now so thought I would give that ago. I now have a separate folder for friends/family & official mail. This I like & will keep and also probably add more folders in the future. After reading some of the posting on our Uni discussion board I realized the extent to which email plays in some peoples lives (for work/personal) or both. Personally I just don't have that much need for it and only check them 1-2 times a week, I can't even imagine having multiple accounts and having to read and reply to hundreds in a week, urhhh!!

Much rather be drawing or painting :)




The list task I didn't do as I have already had experience with this quite recently and it is not for me, personally I did not appreciate and inbox full of sometimes (most-time) unrelated posts to sift through, so I unsubscribed. I do however receive monthly newsletters from several different organizations and company's that I look forward to and enjoy.
