Do you reply to emails that people send to you?

Just to show that you have SOME manners? I have sent emails to people and they couldn't bother themselves to reply. My personal opinion...I think that's kinda rude? What do you think?

    Yes. If I've missed one it's an accident because I can get overwhelmed by them in the morning. It can take me til noon or later to respond some mornings. So sorry if I missed anyone. I have very good manners as a rule.

    Unless the email I receive is a hate mail(which i put into trash bin), I always reply. If i don't reply, it means i've either overlooked it(because i get more than a hundred emails daily from Yahoo! Answers, so sometimes i might miss an email from someone) or that i'm out of town

  • Normally. Maybe not 100% depending on circumstance.

    And I don't reply if someone replies to an email of mine. I sort of consider that exchange complete in an etiquette sense. If some one wants they can continue it or start a new exchange.

    Why else would I enable the email option?

    I believe it is kinda rude, unless a person sends hate mail,.. etc.

    I reply, it may not make sense but i usually reply.

    If i haven't replied it's probably because I haven't checked them, like 360 for example. People have sent me messages on there and told me about it, i just haven't bothered to log on to 360.

    No! Well, sometimes. You might think I'm rude, but I did say (just the other day) that I would save you if there was a fire. See, I am a nice person!

    I try to. I really do. I hate when I send emails and they go completely unanswered-so I try to show some courtesy in that aspect. I'm not perfect-but I try.

    Yes, I do, Lil. And it's harder for me coz I'm in the 19th century and we only have quills to write with.

    If I can manage to reply then I bally well reckon the rest of you modern lot should try harder!
