Valedictions in emails

Question

How does one respectfully sign off semi-formal (e.g. business) emails without going for the full blown “Veuillez agréer, Madame, Monsieur, l'expression de mes sentiments distingués.” etc.?

Answer 1

In business or university context, I tend to use:

Cordialement,

Moreover, if I am thankful and want to convey this stronger feeling, I use:

Bien cordialement,

Answer 2

I often use:

Bien à vous

or:

Bien à toi

which is closer to Yours truly I guess.

Answer 3

I often use the adverb for cordial:

Cordialement,
<Here my email signature>

For an “almost friend but not really friend”, I use something similar to kindly:

Amicalement,
<Here my email signature>

Answer 4

Taking the first few mails in my inbox, we have:

Bonne journée,
Bonne fin de semaine,
Cordialement,

Quite often, nothing.

But mostly, as this is the one included in the official company signature:

Meilleures salutations,
