a pleasure to meet / meeting
I have written the following in an email

It will be a pleasure meeting you"

But now I am not sure about the use of the -ING form. Is it correct ? Is TO + INfinitive better?

Thank you

Answer

Really, they are both fine, although I think "It will be a pleasure to meet you" is more common.  However, after having met someone, I would say, "It was a pleasure meeting you."

These are small points where really it is the courtesy of your sentiment that matters.
