I am launching this topic to share some informal everyday email samples written by native English speakers. It hopefully will be a valuable resource for those who feel like to learn more about writing natural sounding emails.
This is simply the first one:
"I appear to have left my Chelsea coffee mug somewhere in the department, whilst on my travels. If anyone can tell me where it is I would be very grateful!!
Thanks

Unfortunately the main boiler 'locked out' in the early hours of this morning, resulting in loss of heating to the Central site - both academic and residential buildings.
The boiler has been re-lit but will need to be brought back up to temperature slowly to avoid the possibility of pipes bursting upon expansion.
Facilities Management apologises for any inconvenience this may cause and thanks you for your kind cooperation during this period.
Dear all,
We have some electrical work that needs to be carried out in S274a, the comms room on the second floor. This will necessitate the disconnection of power from this room and will mean that computers that route through this room will lose network connectivity for the duration of the work. This will mostly affect users on the second floor of S building.
In addition, the Chem Eng print server and Chem Eng licence server will also be downed. This will mean that printing to Chem Eng network printers will be unavailable for the duration of the work.
Work is planned to be carried out at 10:30 Thursday and is hoped should take no longer than 1 hour and hopefully less. Apologies for the short notice but the work is a matter of urgency.
Regards
Hi everyone,
Happy New Year to you all. I hope to start our sessions again on the 14th January. My son will bring me into the university as my leg is still in a plaster cast.
See you on the 14th.

At present the Highways Agency has commandeered all road salt supplies for motorway and council usage due to the current bad weather across the UK.
As a consequence the University will not be able to obtain any further supplies until the early part of next month at the earliest. We have had a delivery this week and In order to conserve the remaining supplies whilst still maintaining access to as much of the university campus as possible, only main roads around the campus, steps, path inclines and car park entrances will be gritted.
During this severe weather please take extra care on roads and footpaths. Thank you for your cooperation.
Dear colleagues,
The final year undergraduates have challenged the staff to a cricket match this Thursday starting at 4pm. I am sure the students will appreciate seeing academics IN PARTICULAR turn out but all staff and researchers are welcome to join in.
Weather permitting, the match will take place at the Cotton Way sports fields near the driving range.
If you wish to participate please reply, preferably by the end of Tuesday, so that we know far enough in advance whether or not a team can be assembled.
No experience or skill is required, I have neither! It would be good if we can reach the required number (at least 11).
