I've just sent you the final draft of the email.
I hope it's okay.

Thank you, Edwin.
I should be fine.
I'll be busy sending emails in the next few days.

People often don't read group emails properly.

That sounds like an effective way.

It'll be a great opportunity for me to build relationships with colleagues globally.
