Question 66 • Introduction to Information Technology - EL3701 A

Why is it considered bad manners to leave the Subject field blank?

Answer

If there is no subject, recipients cannot use the Reply All feature to respond to the e-mail.

If there is no subject, the e-mail cannot be sent to more than one recipient.

If there is no subject, the recipient has to open the e-mail to see what it is about.

If there is no subject, the e-mail sends more slowly than an e-mail with a subject.

Explanation

The subject line gives recipients a quick idea of what an email is about. When it is blank, they must open the message to find out, which can waste their time and make the email harder to prioritize. A blank subject does not prevent replying to all or sending to multiple recipients, and it does not make an email send more slowly.
