Fixing typo errors in networking e-mails

Hi guys,

I'm sure that many of us have made typo errors in networking e-mails, e.g. missing a ".", missing a "you"... etc...

What is the best way to remedy the mistake? (Aside from thorough checking in the beginning)?

  1. Do you suggest covering the old one by sending out a new one?
  2. Writing a small line to apologize for the mistake and correct it?
  3. Do nothing?

I would love to hear your guy's opinion.

Thanks!

Proofread. Shouldn't happen in the first place. If it does though, it's an oversight and people are going to look more favorably on a simple typo than getting an entire new email identical to the first that calls attention to whatever minor mistake it may have been. Hell, they might have never even noticed.

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
