Hey. I had an old T who was not too fond of email. She believed that things could be taken the wrong way, especially on the clients part, because of transferance, projection, etc.

For example: If T were to respond with just a short statement, the client could think T is upset at client because it is just a short reponse.

Or clients might put feelings into emails where they don't necessarily belong.

I believe this, because it has happened to me and I have attributed feelings to the emails, that were not correct.

My T explained to me today, not to be offended by his brief responses, but he likes to use the emails more as a way to really read and take the time to think about what's going on, whereas I use them as a connection and a process tihng-- so it works out for both of us. We both believe that things shouldn't really be discussed on email because face to face contact is needed-- you truly need to see one another and be present with the nonverbals and allt hat.
