What does polonius mean by brevity is the soul of wit?
It is self-explanatory. "Brevity" means terseness, saying things with few words. "Wit" is intelligent and clever use of language, although it can also mean just plain intelligence. Saying that something is the soul of something is the same as saying that it is at the heart of that thing, or that it is the essence of that thing. So, the saying could be rephrased (with a less satisfactory rhythm) as "brevity is at the heart of wit" or "brevity is the essence of wit". Therefore what it means is that if you want to speak intelligently you should use just as many words as you need and no more. Of course it says that much more briefly and therefore more intelligently. The irony is that the guy who says this line, Polonius in Hamlet, is notoriously neither brief nor witty.

You can break the quoted message down into paragraphs and comment on them individually to make it clearer.Do be patient, especially with inexperienced email users.

Are you sure you want to reply to the whole list?Do remember to delete anything that isn't needed or is trivial.Do remember to tell people the format of any attachments you send if they're anything other than basic Microsoft Office file types.Do tell your correspondent if you forward a message to somebody else to deal with, so they know who to expect a reply from.Do use emphasis where its useful to do so.
