Emily Post would be proud of her successor, Judith Kallos of netmanners.com. She guides people as to how to navigate the web-world without ruffling any feathers.

Here, she talked to npr about the don’ts of email.

Some of her tips for achieving email harmony:

Add please and thank you to keep your tone cordial.

Don’t forward something unless you’re confident the recipient would enjoy receiving it.

Send small files or upload photos to an online gallery and simply send a link to your pics instead.

Avoid being an “e-tattler” by cc-ing folks who don’t need to be in the know.

Keep your signatures simple.

As for wedding invites, opt for the paper variety.
