Dear All,
May I begin an email with these words?
I hope you won't mind that I'm sending this e-mail straight to you, but Tim has forwarded your reply to me and I thought I could directly ask one or two questions.
The situation is as follows: My co-worker has been in touch with a person from another workplace (where he will be working starting September) and he made some inquaries on my behalf regarding work opportunities. He has forwarded to me all messages he got and now I'd like to approach the HR person personally by sending her an email.
Would be grateful for your assistance.
Thanks!

Thank you Mister M.
I've noticed that one of the changes proposed by you is the one where don't mind replaces won't mind. Does it mean that future tense here is incorrect?
