Your cover letters, CVs and your applications are talking to a human being. You aren’t emailing a machine. A human is reading your application. His blood flow, heartbeat, emotions, hormonal surges and glandular secretions are being affected by your words.
These all will decide whether he rejects your application or accepts it. Make sure you take care of his internal systems through your words. He’ll take care of your application.
PS- If this is utopian; believe in utopia.
