Subject Line:
- Use a subject line that indicates you're responding to the original email, such as "Re: [Original Email Subject]" or "Callback on [Original Email Subject]".
Body:
- Acknowledge receipt: Start by acknowledging receipt of the original email and thanking the sender for reaching out.
- Request clarification: Clearly state what you need clarification on or what additional information you require to move forward.
- Specify what you need: Be specific about what you need to know or what information you're looking for. This could be a question, a request for more details, or a clarification on a specific point.
