In two documents, totalling 7,000 words, staff at Nottinghamshire police are warned of the "risks" associated with the world wide web and the importance of addressing e-mails correctly.
Police are told they must remember to check for new messages regularly and make sure they use the "To" and "Cc" send options properly.
Other forces have managed to get the message across in a more concise fashion. Cumbria Police wrote just 600 words of guidance for police about what they do online.
However do we manage without 22 pages of instructions?
