内容：电子邮件通常不加封面 （ Cover Sheet）,只有收件人的电子邮件地址 （ To:）,事由或主题 （ Re:或 Subject:）,抄送 （ Cc:或
Bcc:,即 blind carbon copy暗抄送,收件人收到电子邮件时看不到这一栏的内容 ） 和正文等项目 。
格式：正文的格式与各种商务信函,备忘录等基本相同 。 现在人们倾向于用电子邮件附件 （ attachment） 的形式发送各种数字化的文件,
如信函,文本文件,照片,图表等等 。 附件的格式与电子邮件的格式无关 。
注意：电子邮件的正文应尽量简短明了,因为如果篇幅太长,全文就不可能同时显示在计算机的屏幕上,收件人阅读时会感到不方便 。 另外,与正式商务信函一样,撰写电子邮件的正文时,也一定要用规范的语言,不要出现语法和拼写错误,要让收件人感到你办事是十分严谨,十分认真的 。
