Whether or not I had done so, I'd view a merely-forwarded email as uncivil, apart from issues about peer-or-not. I do attempt to respond within a few hours of receipt of all email, even if only to acknowledge receipt. So, if I were to receive a fowarded copy of an email that had already been sent to me, I would consider it quite rude, yes. Unreplied is also really secure: it uses. You have an assortment of filtering options at your disposal to make sure that only the important messages get through. Unreplied lives in your Macs status bar and updates itself periodically. if only so that one can tell whether a thing was mis-sent and/or truncated, not to mention some overt acknowledgement of the identity and dignity of the recipient. Unreplied allows you to see all of those missed conversations and makes it super simple to get back into them. I've tried to cultivate in my students a sense that emails should have a "greeting", a "body", and a "closing", much as old-timey paper letters did. if a proper understanding can be reached. so that "acknowledgement of receipt" becomes unappealing and an arguable waste of time. There is the other issue about acknowledgement of receipt, even if one's response will be delayed.īut/and if one is teaching a course with 30 or 100 or 250 students, individual responses to daily can be a time-consuming occupation. E.g., some seem to only go through email once a day, on weekdays, or even less often. The premises are tricky: what is "prompt" to one person is not to another, and not everyone checks (work-related) email at every available opportunity. In Outlook 2007 and older, it’s at Tools, Macro Security.Īfter you test the macro and see that it works, you can either leave macro security set to low or sign the macro.On the whole, I'd say "yes, this is a rude way to send a reminder to a non-peer." To check your macro security in Outlook 2010 or 2013, go to File, Options, Trust Center and open Trust Center Settings, and change the Macro Settings. IntDateDiff = DateDiff("d", sentDate, Now)įirst: You will need macro security set to low during testing. Select Case Weekday(sentDate, vbUseSystemDayOfWeek) It checks the sent date and adds 2 to account for the weekend days. If the date span is 5 business days, this snippet should work. Removing weekends (or holidays) from the count is more difficult.
