‘EOM’ for ‘End of Message’ another Email Subject Line Tag

by Garrick van Buren 3 Comments on ‘EOM’ for ‘End of Message’ another Email Subject Line Tag

I’m starting to see more tags (see Better Email Tips) in my email subject lines. Today, I received an email canceling a meeting, with all the information contained in the subject line with “(eom)” at the end.

eom: end of message

I’d recommend using it when your entire message can be included in the subject line and I suspect it could be more than you think 🙂

  1. I know this is an old post, but I just ran into it. An old convention is to end the subject line with ‘nt’ or ‘n/t’ for No Text. This is the way I’ve been doing it for quite some time.

  2. Dennis is right. adding (nt) or (n/t) is the accepted way of doing this and has been used that way for well over a decade.
