Some of Egan’s email advice is:

• Don’t waste peoples time with unnecessary emails, forgotten attachments, or big images
• Don’t forwarded lengthy email chains saying “see below”
• Don’t send poorly written emails with spelling mistakes, crammer mistakes and bad punctuations
• Check your email only 3-4 times a day, and not every 10 minutes
• Keep your inbox empty
• Don’t send emails between 1 am and 5 am

And, just for fun... You know you're an E-Mail E-ddict when...?

• You email yourself if you haven't received email for several minutes, just to make sure the email system hasn't gone down...
• You look up EVERY time your computer "BRRRINGS" to announce an email...
• You name your pets Mozilla, Firefox and Google
• You get upset if you don't receive a response to your email message in an hour...
• You refer to yourself as your email address when someone asks your name
• You email someone who has thanked you, thanking him or her for thanking you.
• You stop what you are doing to answer an "easy" email, even tho' it might not be the most important, JUST to knock it off the list...
• You check your email the minute you get outa bed... even if it is the middle of the night
• You ask new acquaintances for their email addresses, not their phone numbers...
• You open your email first, before doing anything else...
• You sleep with your Blackberry nestled under your arm
• You keep more than 1000 items in your inbox at all times...
• You click "send/receive" just to make sure you haven't "missed" any email...
• You check your spam filters hourly (or less) to make sure you're not missing anything...
• You email the person sitting in the desk next to you, rather than turn around to ask the question...
