Mail Forwards…Yikes!!!

I click on my get message button atleast 20-30 times in a day. Probably that’s not strange!! One often waits for some important emails – May be an approval for the vacation from the boss or an acceptance of a patent presentation from the patent committee or from somebody special ;)

But what happens when you click the get message button and the message header reads “FWD:”… The first thing you do is search for the delete button or scroll at a pretty faster rate and then delete it or read it completely and then call up your cube mate and tell him that it’s a wonderful forward or forward it to your mailing list or have a filter in your mail box that routes your mail to the trash can.

But what could be those “compelling reasons” that makes one to click the forward button – Probably it’s really worth for forwarding or ennakku vandhathu, naanum annupuven (I got it and hence I will send it to others) or chumma (Just like that).

But let’s give a thought on the Mail Forwards. What do we get at the end of the day by forwarding mails –we only create trash on the mail box and waste the bandwidth? But demarcating between what is trash and what is not, is definitely debatable. So what’s the solution?

I can’t think of one and have to go home. Until then keep enjoying the mail forwards!!!!
