本周早些时候，我们问你对电子邮件的偏见是什么。我们翻阅了这些评论，现在我们回来强调你对某些电子邮件地址的感受以及他们对使用这些地址的人的评价。

评论界对这篇文章的意见非常热烈，截至本次后续报道撰写时，评论人数已接近500人。在所有的评论中，出现了一些关于电子邮件状态和选择电子邮件提供商和用户名的明确意见。

• The username you select is vastly more important than the provider you use. [email protected] is preferred to and more respectable than [email protected]—cutesy, offensive, or unprofessional nicknames are big mistakes.

  Domains are important, especially in technology-related fields. An AOL address might be just as serviceable as any other address when it comes to sending and receiving mail but to most people in tech fields it says "Hi. I'm from 1996. What is this internet you speak of?"

  As an IT exec, I definitely made judgments against prospective hires based on email addresses (as well as a wide array of other factors). It wasn't uncommon for me to have 100-500 resumes for a single open position, and I didn't care to rely on HR to sort through them, so I did it myself, and I needed some way to get down to a short-list of around 10 people. As such, it was pretty easy to toss a resume because somebody had a goofy email address. And I would certainly raise an eyebrow at a supposed IT tech who had an AOL.com address. - Mike De Lucia

作为一名技术领域的IT经理，我不得不说，当我在商务或简历中使用Hotmail或AOL地址时，我有点偏见。AOL是一个更为过时的个人电子邮件地址。Hotmail被称为儿童电子邮件，适用于那些不在乎自己的邮件在一段时间内不登录时是否会被扔掉的人，以及垃圾邮件的一次性地址。-甘卡库

• More concerning than people using inappropriate emails handles on their resumes? Businesses that don't have their own domain and personalized email. SomeCompany@**cglobal.net or [email protected] were huge turn offs to readers and many expressed that they would question the professionali** of a company with such an unpolished image and do business elsewhere.

  I'm a photographer and also wonder when I see other photographers without a domain name email. It seems as though they aren't serious about their career if they haven't taken the time to create a website and therefore have a domain name email. - veronykah

  The flood of comments wasn't without dissenting opinion by any measure; many commenters weighed in pointing out that it was superficial and judgmental to make snap decisi*** based on an email address.

  I don't understand the prejudice against hotmail. I've had my hotmail address for like 15+ years. Though I've had it so long I was able to choose @msn.com for my address. Fortunately I took it over hotmail.com so maybe people don't look down on me quite so much. When I see a hotmail.com address, I think, 'wow, that person's been using email for a long time.'

  One astute observation made by several readers was that it's a huge hassle to switch email providers so most people never bother. One reader even noted that the hassle-factor could be a big reason why people get defensive:

  This issue comes up every now and then, and it always gets people so riled up. People get defensive because so many e-mail services entrench their users - they can't switch to a new one without a lot of hassle. Read the rest of veblen's comment here.

正如我们在最初的帖子中所提到的，电子邮件地址已经变得无处不在，因为我们在职业和社交场合都会慷慨地分发它们，所以值得花时间来评估你的电子邮件地址对你的评价。你可爱的用户名在高中或大学时可能很新奇，但进入职场后，肯定是时候让SexyStud99退役了，取而代之的是John.R.Smith。

就像你的衣着、发型和说话方式一样，你的电子邮件地址也是你个人形象的一部分。当然，这是一种偏见，因为你有一个“过时”的电子邮件地址或“愚蠢”的用户名，招聘经理可能会看你，但这并不完全不同于招聘经理对你不戴领带出席面试感到无动于衷。当然，这对你来说可能不重要或愚蠢，你可能会说“我无论如何也不想在这么紧张的公司工作”，但这是值得考虑的，因为无论偏见大小-是公平的还是合理的，它仍然存在。

有电子邮件相关的故事吗？围绕电子邮件地址的尴尬时刻？作为处理申请或其他招聘流程的人，你有什么见解？让我们在评论中听听。
