What is proper etiquette for sending a work email when the recipient is out of the office?
That's our question for our Dr. Miles Intervention this morning after an article was published describing how a professor responds to his emails when he is "out of office."
Apparently, whenever someone sends him an email when he is out of the office, they are automatically sent a reply that reads:
"I am out of office between these dates. If you send me an email during that time it will be deleted within 24 hours. Please resend your email the day I return."
That bring us to our Intervention this morning. Is it ok to send someone an email when you know they are out of the office? And as for the professor, is it appropriate to force someone to re-send you an email because their original was sent at a time when you were out of the office?
