Writing long email messages is one of the last things I would consider a waste of time. I am too often left confused or wanting more information after reading short messages I receive from other people. People waste entire hours or days every month doing things that are actually a waste of time; it is there we should look if we want to have more time. Reducing the length of messages is just sloppy.<p>I like to read well written and thought-out email, not short SMS messages like suggested by the (two|three|four|five).sentenc.es policy.
