Note:  Be careful composing Email...

DO NOT TYPE IN CAPITAL LETTERS.  This is the same as shouting.  Use "I" language instead of "you" language.  The receiver won't feel so defensive if you express how YOU feel instead of "accusing him/her".  Remember... your email is "in writing" and the receiver doesn't have the benefit of seeing your actual face or hearing your human voice to ascertain your feelings.  The receiver will interpret your message based on your choice of words  and your proper use of the formal English language.  

Be courteous and professional.
