Totally unneccesary business email replies

In My Humble Opinion
1

I’d think that the only time you REALLY need to reply to a business email is if you are either
A) answering a question
B) asking a follow-up question
C) confirming/revising/rejecting/providing important info
D) acknowledging the receipt of critical instructions or information

I’d think that the only time you REALLY DON’T need to reply to a business email is if you want to say
A) Thanks!
B) Thank you
C) Thank U
D) Awesome thx
E) You rock
F) Cool
G) OK
H) This is great (not as an approval, but as unsolicited commentary)

Yeah, I’ve got one of those at my job…

Thanks, you rock! What a great thread!

Here’s the thing though … we receive a ton of files that feed our system via email.

For us, “Thanks,” is short for, “We’ve received your file and we will load it tonight.”*

What sucks is when each of the five different people on the distribution respond to the poor bastards.
ETA – * which I see you’ve sort of addressed in option D, so, you know … ignore me.
