I think that you made a very good point regarding the contents of EMAIL 
messages, however I have to disagree with you about posting EMAIL on the net.
The reason for this is that it is very easy (intentional or not), for the
poster to post a quote that would be taken out of context.   To quote an 
entire message is probably safe, but usually not good practice on the net.
If a message is posted, the sender should be consulted prior to posting.
