You should look up '''parts of a letter" because the salutation is the greeting, e.g., Dear Mr. or Hi ya, toots" the closing or complimentary closing is when you use "Sincerely, All best, or So long, babe."

Thank you! I was scratching my head there for a while. My personal preference would be no closing, especially for multiple back and forth emails. I wish there was an English equivalent to "aloha", which is kind of all-purpose closing or salutation.

Thanks, best, cheers

Love and licks,
your name

Not like super annoyed just a quick passing thought annoyed and then I move on.

I"m sort of the same way. But doesn't "thanks" not always apply?

Either Thank you, Thanks, Fondly, or XOXO

My creepy boss used that with everyone. I think he didn't know any other ones.

Later, taters

I don't get the "I no longer work"

if you no longer work, are you asking how to sign emails to friends and family?

If it's informal and someone I correspond with regularly, I usually sign off with "Take care," but if it's any other situation, it's "Sincerely."
