    Have a sub section on the homework policy in the syllabus explain that each e-mail should contain the students full name, the class that they are e-mailing you about, the section, etc. — Don't forget the compulsory wishes for having a great weekend! :^) Commented Jun 22, 2015 at 1:03
  • hahaha. this is the best answer by far. if teachers expect something out of the ordinary from their students, they should indeed specify it on their syllabus. Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 15:38

    ... and given that 'ordinary' clearly is subjective here, I would just say "if teachers expect specific information they should state it very clearly and/or provide a template and/or examples. Otherwise everyone will make their best guess". Commented Jun 27, 2015 at 14:51
