When I email back & forth with friends, I think nothing of starting an email like a conversation, no salutation, no closing line, just a conversation - but that’s with friends. In a business setting, I guess I’m just old-fashioned. I cannot imagine using chatspeak when emailing a business associate.
Here’s an example of the casual business emails that drive me nuts.

Hi {name},
Do we have the option of signing up for the Roth 401K instead of the
traditional 401K? If it’s an option for us, I’d like information
regarding the plan.
Thanks!
