[0]這篇道歉信比較短，不知道日常生活中的道歉信是否也這么短。或許是因?yàn)閷Ψ奖緛砭涂赡鼙容^生氣了，再發(fā)一篇長篇大論可能對方也不想看，對方其實(shí)就像知道問題怎么解決，后果誰承擔(dān)。因此這篇郵件的邏輯基本也是按照這一順序。
[1]開頭道歉。[2]然后可能會(huì)講述問題原因，或者將解決方案先講完，再解釋原因(如果比較長)。
[3]解決辦法，越細(xì)越好，落實(shí)到人頭和時(shí)間。這里用的shortly，或許發(fā)完郵件當(dāng)天就會(huì)著手處理，但如果解決的時(shí)間比較長一些，或許應(yīng)寫明大約需要多少時(shí)間。
[4]最后再次道歉。
