"A personal present from an individual requires a handwritten individual thank-you.
A gift presented at a party on behalf of a roomful of people can be acknowledged with a verbal thank-you to everyone at the party either individually or, acoustics and topography permitting, all at once.
A group gift delivered at home (or tossed in an inbox at work) can be acknowledged with a card posted in the lunchroom or an email.
Miss Manners agrees that those who are not thanked cannot reasonably be expected to participate in the future."
