A new survey carried out by information company Experian and the Direct Marketing Association has been looking into the e-mail habits of UK office workers.

The research showed that 60% of office workers admit to regularly sending e-mails to the person that is sitting next to them. A further one in six have claimed to have asked someone to go out on a date via e-mail while approximately a third say that they have had an e-mail relationship with someone they have never met.
