This is what I routinely do for my own personal info when writing to a craigslist ad.

Then, in my email I copy/edit their Title which includes city, then copy/edit their ad text and then form my questions. 99% of the time I get responses. I do this so "I" know which request is concerning which ad since I do inquire sometimes to more than one ad/in more than one city.
i do this also so that i can know which ad i responded to. and in the title along with their info i may type something like "have questions" or "still available???" or "i'm interested" so hopefully they will at least look at the response and not think it is spam.
