How to write an email
I know it seems obvious, but people can be stuck for hours writing a few sentences of an email. I know I used to. Here's the format to write emails, so you can copy/paste for each one (writing the description first, the copy/paste is after):
Dear _____ (company name, person's first and last name - without titles, like mr, mrs, etc.),
What you're emotionally connecting over that's about them - what you're impressed with or how they are
what you're interested in doing
wish them well - a nice day or something
explain how and what to contact you back about, so they continue the conversation
Regards,
full name
phone number
email
personal website
(all these help people reach out easier through copy/paste when they need to)

How to have a usable email address
make sure
- there aren't letters that sound the same and are easy to know (the difference between them)
- especially when you tell others
- the wording's not ambiguous
- it's short
- esp for filling in
