"do not hang on expecting any question soon"?

It is only courteous to let you know so/so that you do not hang on expecting any question soon.

Is hang on OK to be followed by the underlined part, please?

In my view this should be something like: It is only courteous to let you know, so that you don't hang on to the hope of receiving an answer soon. )

I am used to emailing my teacher who is a P/psychologist some questions and he answers. In this case, would you say they are inquires, please?

One does not generally comment on one's own courtesy, I'd say "This is just to let you know that I won't be sending you any more questions for a while",
