Email Task

I enjoyed doing these tasks. I use email quite a lot but wouldn't consider myself a power user. I don't have to deal with loads of work related email on a daily basis, so I have never given much thought those little buttons "cc" and "bcc" on the top of the compose screen in my email client. So ...
In what cases would I find it useful to use 'cc', 'bcc' and 'reply all' functions of email?
Sending mail via "cc" is fine if i wish to send a copies of my message to other people where it's not an issue that everybody can see the multiple email address used.If it is, then i would send copies using the "bcc" option. This ensures that the recipient receives a copy but without revealing other recipient's email addresses in the process. The issue is one of netiquette
In what ways can you ensure that an attachment you send will be easily opened by a receiver? You do so by ensuring that the recipient has the program that can open the specific attached file. In some circumstances this may require your to communicate before sending the attachment. If the attachments are text based files, it may be an option to incorporate the message within the email itself.
What sort of rules or filters do i set up and for what purpose?
I use filters in my email client extensively. The client i use gives a number of options for dealing with incoming mail: deleting, labeling, forwarding, marking as read and archiving . The main reasons i use are for deleting rubbish, for example, spam. Unsolicited email that gets past the spam filters on the mail server only gets into my inbox once. Then I set up a filter and I never have to worry about it again. I also use filters to delete those newsletters especially those promotional types that i thought would be good to subscribe to at the time but just to clutter up my inbox. Sometimes i just can't be bothered unsubscribing to them because the link to do it is too hard to find, so i just set up a filter to delete them before they arrive. The other reason i filter is to label specific incoming mail: bills and wage invoices as well as mail from specific people, which brings me to the next question: Have you organized the folder structure of your email and why?
I am a labels man myself. I've used folders a lot in the past for the usual reasons described: to archive important mail; I hate a cluttered inbox! However I recently gave Gmail a go and now it is my preferred email system . As far as I know, Gmail is the only Email system that doesn't use folders; they use labels. I can apply multiple labels of different colors, if i like, to any email. it's similar to using tags. I don't think you can do this with folders.That is, file an email in more than one folder. Once i label an email i then archive it and it disappears from my inbox. But it's not lost. i can choose to display the "all mail" link underneath my inbox link to display all my emails. I can also search for any labeled email using the search functions. With the large amount of space allocated to users these days, there is no reason for me to delete email from my inbox (unless it's rubbish of course!).I just archive it thus keeping my inbox nice and clean. This is a good example, i think, of automation, and the benefit it provides us to deal with the onslaught of information that comes with the use of technology.
