If an email has an empty subject line, what is the first likely effect on the receiver?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The purpose of the message will not be clear immediately
The subject line gives the receiver a quick indication of an email’s topic and purpose. If it is empty, the receiver may not immediately know what the message concerns, which can delay prioritising and reading it. An empty subject does not automatically delete the email, cause grammatical errors, or prevent a reply.
