I would think that "Your email was received on..." would be more polite than using "I" unless you are speaking to the supplier person-to-person with colloquial language. If you are speaking to the supplier person-to-person but with formal language, use what I put in.

Actually, if you are speaking person-to-person, either don't use "I" or don't use "us". In the first sentence in your draft, you stated "I" meaning yourself. In your third sentence in your draft, you wrote "us" meaning your company or business as a whole. That would be contradictory so either use "I" and "me" or "We" and "us". Then you put in your regards as Don, implying that you mean you are speaking to the supplier by yourself.

What about a "Please do not reply?" just in case?
