I'm typing an email, well my 3rd to the same person, where I've been asking one question after another instead of putting all of them in a single email. I'm very much entitled to ask questions and the other person (not a team, an individual) is obligated to answer them. But I just want to be polite this time and say, "I don't want to be a ____ but there is this other question" or something to that effect. Help?
PS: It is not that I'm asking a question on top of the previous' response, I just think of a new question to ask in the same context.
