If you have three *distinct questions* you should send three *distinct e-mails*. Additionally, you should use - plenty of *whitespace* - bullet *points* - other forms of *formatting* so that your information is as *skimmable* as possible. At least that's what I was taught in Eng 316 and that's what I do when I want to send information to people who I know really *don't want the information* I'm trying to send, but are supposed to receive it as part of procedure.
