Email Communication Methods

Email Communication Methods

The email communication techniques are the following,

·          The first useful technique is CC – Carbon Copy. This is because when you are writing an email and you want to send it to two or more people, you put them in the CC space and when you send this, the people who receive the email will be able to see who has sent it. BCC – Blank Carbon Copy is the opposite of CC. When writing an email to two people and you want only one person to see the email, you put a name in the CC for the person you what to see the email and the other in BCC so the person CC will not be able to see the other person`s name. For example you wanted to send an email to your boss and you -+don’t want anyone else to see it. You would put your bosses name in the Blank Carbon Copy box only so no one else can read it.

·          The second technique is spam filter. A spam filter is programmed into an email account used for the detection and deletion of spam emails, also known as junk or unwanted emails. Spam email is by definition received by the user, meaning he has not asked to receive it. Spam is often sent by money making companies and can many times lead to the user's computer being infested with viruses, spyware or other malware.
·         Rules is an important technique because when you are receiving emails what you hate getting and you don’t have any ware to put them, there is simple folder without you doing it by yourself. For example, when you’ve got a folder and when you have just received a number of different emails, it automatically put the emails into the right folder making your inbox for your wanted emails only.
·         And the third technique is Anti-virus filtering is enabled on all user email accounts to prevent our users receiving viruses what could be hidden in the email. This is useful because if the virus is hidden and you open it you will have no idea what it is doing to your computer.

·         There is a virus program called phishing. This is very harmful to your computer and very hard to spot in an email. The reason why is because phishing is the program what hacks your computer to get all of your personal example, if you receive an email what is like trying to sell you something like free vouchers and you click on it, as soon as you click on the email, the phishing virus will have full access to everything what belongs to you. So a tip to bodge the viruses is if you get and email like it, don’t click on it and bin it.

Principles of effective communication

i have shown general attributes, specific attributes and the attributes of effective communication and two examples of each one and how they relate to the title.

Principles of effective communication


A principle of effective communication is a type of language what everyone uses. This is a skill what people are looking for all the time and this skill is essential for all kinds of jobs. An example of this skill is engaging the audience and general planning. Intonation is where you are speaking about some information to someone and the information is very important, the speaker changes the tone of his-her voice to suit the humanity of the speak. Interpersonal is also seen as a skill to have for people to notice. This means things like body language, gestures and lip reading. This is to give a visual description to people who may have a disability. The last skill people will be noticing is written communication what is a principle of effective communication. This is because if you wanted to write a memo or a letter to someone, they would need to know how to set up things like a email, a letter, fax and be able to do things like always know to check for spellings, punctuation, this is because if you are sending something to a professional person they need to be able to get everything right.


General communication skills
This type of ability is planning. Planning is so important because planning your work makes things so much easier for yourself and this is because you can get things done a lot quicker. Also this ability might be good for social networking sites such as Facebook, twitter and my space. This is good for general communication because you can learn the basics of communication and learn how to set things up. Catering for cultural differences is important. This is because if you have people from different countries, you will need to make sure that your information is understood by everyone. Also if people have a hearing disability, you will have to make that there is plenty of things to look at such as pictures and information so it can be more clear for people. Communicating with your audience is recommended because if they ask questions, they will be looking for a answer what can give them extra information. This also helps with confidence because you are talking to a variety of people you’ve never seen before.
Interpersonal communication skills
This is an ability which you have a conversation face to face or with more than 1 person to share or discuss your information. This is talking about people expressing themselves to the group with gestures. The group of people are looking for a clear explanation which involves hand movements and different types of body language to describe what they are showing.
Written communication skills
Written communication skills is all about how to use similes and emotions and text messages. People are looking for things to do with these type of skills because they to how good they can write a professional message. However the person receiving the message my come the conclusion that the other person has sent a inappropriate message. But if it was a face to face, the person receiving the message would laugh and know the person is joking because they could of put a smiley on the message. They need to put your sincerely at the end of an email because this shows who its from.
