Are these sentences natural? June 13

Hi,

Are the following sentences natural to a native ear?

1. I did not want you to change your mind and call me for the meeting.



2. I think you did not receive my email that I had resolved the issue myself.



3. I had sent another email to you guys to not work on this issue any more as I had resolved it, within 10 minutes of sending the original message.

Thanks,

MG.
