email subject

Inbox preview text

The email subject is the brief line of text that summarizes or labels an email's content, appearing in the recipient's inbox before they open the message.

A good subject line is concise and informative: Meeting rescheduled to Thursday, Your order has shipped.

Vague or missing subjects make emails harder to find later and more likely to be ignored.
