Here's an article that talks about that common minefield - the proper etiquette to use in email signoffs. I've had to raise the issue with a few students recently that I expect (what I consider) the standard email conventions but clearly that is subjective opinion because no-one seems to know the 'rules'. A salutation and a sign-off seem to me to be obligatory except in the middle of a rapid-fire email conversation or with someone you are very relaxed with. what other closing conventions do you use that might be similar to how you finish a texting or messenger conversation or even a phone call?
Please comment with your email examples (anonymised), questions, thought etc.
