In a university setting, emails provide students a convenient and accessible means of communication to reach their teachers for questions, concerned, or requests outside of class hours, ensuring continuous support and guidance. However, such a means of communication is prone to potential pitfalls due to the nature of written language. Hence, the current research aims to understand students' use of politeness strategies and teachers' perception of their language. The study deploys the mix-method approach thought quantitative analysis of emails from students and interviews with teachers of English in department of foreign language in Djelfa university, Algeria. The findings indicate that although impolite or rude emails constitute less than half of the total, their detrimental effects on teachers are more substantial than the positive ones.
