E-mail etiquette
There are generally agreed guidelines for using e-mail and some of the most important are listed here.
Using smilies
Some people use smilies as a fun shorthand to express emotions.
• Always fill out the subject line on your message to help recipients decide when (and whether) to read your message.
• Pause before you send an e-mail you might later regret.
• Don’t type in all capital letters; YOUR MESSAGE WILL LOOK LIKE YOU ARE SHOUTING!
• Don’t send messages you wouldn’t want to be forwarded by the recipient (at least not without adding a “for your eyes only” note).
• Don’t send confidential or secret information such as credit card information) through non secured e-mail.
The notation : - ) is a “smiley”. Turn the page around and you can see a smiling face where : is the eyes, – is the nose, ) is the mouth. Smilies are also abbreviated as : ) or : >
Smiley Emotion Meaning
: - ) Happy This was a joke
; - ) Happy winking I’m pulling your leg
: - P Sticking out tongue “Nyahh” or “Bleh”
: - ( Unhappy I’m sad about this
: ~ ( Crying I’m very sad about this
: - 1 Unemotional I’m less than thrilled
> : - ( Very unhappy I’m upset
USING
8 - ) Wide eyed happiness This surprised me
: - O Shouting I’m yelling and upset
8 – O Wide eyed shouting I’m even more upset
> 8 - ) Mad, wide eyed shouting Now I’m really angry
1 – 1 Asleep Zzzzzz...

HELP AND ADVICE
Sometimes when a call is received, “Unavailable” or “Withheld” is displayed on the TV screen.
When a call is received and the number appears on the TV screen, my TV also shows the channel identifier.
This is because the caller may not want you to know who is calling, or perhaps because the call has come from a private company that does not deliver Caller Display.
