خلفية ثقافية
Germans value 'Verbindlichkeit' (commitment/reliability). Ending an email with 'In diesem Sinne' reinforces that the preceding words are a serious basis for future action. In Austria, this phrase is often used in 'Heurigen' (wine taverns) to conclude a long story before a collective drink. While Swiss German has its own dialects, 'In diesem Sinne' is used in High German contexts (news, formal writing) just as in Germany. In German universities, this phrase is a 'signal word' for students that the lecture is ending, often followed by the traditional knocking on tables.
The Comma Rule
If you use 'In diesem Sinne' as a standalone intro (In diesem Sinne: Prost!), use a colon. If it's part of the sentence (In diesem Sinne wünsche ich...), no comma is needed after it in German.
Don't Overuse
Using it in every email makes you sound like a template. Save it for when you actually have a 'spirit' to summarize.
