Thank-you messages should always end with a goodwill note, expressing your hope for the next steps in the hiring process. The other options are incorrect; thank-you messages should be sent within 24-48 hours after the interview, they do have an impact on your ability to get a job, and they should be concise and to the point. While mail is a valid option for sending a thank-you message, email is also acceptable and may be more convenient for the hiring manager.
