An additional benefit is that one can skip the formalities of a regular letter Email is typically shorter and a more relaxed way of sending messages; it is particularly practical if you do not want to call long distance because of a language barrier or the expense. When language is an obstacle, sending an email is a blessing; after all, it is easier to see the message than have to speak on the telephone. From Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
