  Regards,
  xxx

  I usually use "Regards". "Yours sincerely" sounds a little....
  
  insincere...

  emails usually ple dun put 'yours sincerely'

  I use "regards" or "cheers", old habits from NS days.
  
  OMG, you cannot imagine reading 1001 emails from all around the SAF, with "Cheers" or "Plz Revert" everyday.
  
  Made it feel so fake, especially with jokers in my S4 branch sending me emails for the most useless things like where to go for lunch etc.

  u all nv learn before ma?
  
  if u use 'Dear Mary', u will have to end with 'Yours Sincerely'.
  
  If you use 'Dear Sir', u will have to end with 'Yours faithfully'.
  
  If you use 'Hi Jane!", then just use 'Regards' lor.

  are u familiar with these people?
  
  cos if one is sending e-mails to big bosses, better to put Dear so-and-so. sometimes customers might complain the way one write e-mails and how they are addressed.

  I think some may think that 'Yours sincerely' may be a wee bit too personal. 'Regards' may be regarded as a bit more impersonal.
  
  Personally, I still use 'Yours sincerely', except for extreme circumstances when a harsh tone is needed in the letter. As far as I recall that has happened just once - when I had a horrendous experience with the customer service when I was sending in my digicam for repair. In a feedback email to them, I ended off with the following:
  
  'With regards - from a highly disgruntled customer.'

  'Yours sincerely' ought to be good enough.
