    I once received a verbal warning at work because my emails were too brief.

    I have since moved to Spain where the email style is more brief and to the point. It is much better.

      I think I once saw an email of a professor in response to a student’s question that looked something like this:

      Dear [student name],

      No.

      Regards.

      As it should be, I figure. My work emails are pretty funny. Everyone follows standard letter format, but the main part is so short and minimal that it feels dumb to have used the proper greetings and closing format.
