Lots of us actually have day jobs that are not Ercoupe related.  Some of
us
on the cutting edge use e-mail in the course of those jobs.  If we're way
out there on the bleeding, we may even have some automated way that our
customers and co-workers can use e-mail in creative ways to alert us to
things that are critical to our situations.  To that end, my company
forwards messages marked "high importance" to the short messaging system
of
my PCS carrier.  My phone beeps incessently and the name of the sender and
date and subject line show up on the screen, so I can drop what ever I'm
doing and attend to the crisis.  Or explain to those around me how it's
something that isn't important...

So please consider the following two things.

1)  Use the high importance flag only when the message you're sending is
of
high importance to the recepient. (not just the sender).  Example: You
have
unrefutable information that all Ercoupes are to explode at 5:45 PM today.

2) Consider never using it in the context of a list, since it's unlikely
that everyone on the list will think it's that important anyhow (refer to
previous example).

Thanks for your consideration.
