I read another thread on a similar topic, but it doesn't answer my question.

When is "warm regards" appropriate to end a letter or email?
What is the difference to "kind regards"?
Is "warmest regards" inappropriate for business?

Or is it all just the same!

Hi Lea,

In North America, I think "warmest regards" would not be appropriate for business. Go with Yours truly, or Sincerely, Regards, or something similar.

Kind regards is generic. "Warm regards" has a bit of a personal touch that be used beween opposite sexes.

Signing off a letter ought not be a big deal. If your e-mail is business like, treat it as a letter. If it is casual between friends, you can do whatever you want.
