unless i am specifically writing to a professor, boss or other authority figure, i almost never capitalize in emails or other informal means of communication. as part of a generation that has grown up communicating via AIM, texting, facebook, etc., i find it a normal practice to get to the point and be less than concerned about what is properly capitzalized. at least i use punctuation and proper spelling, which is more than i can say for many people my age!

Is it so difficult to press the Shift key?
FYI, if you ever work in a corporate setting, be aware that email is considered fairly formal and thus deserves proper capitalization. Some people even use salutations!
Oh and if you are going to claim proper spelling, you should probably spell check.

I thought the same thing. Very odd.
