It is my opinion that as Larry said, our e-mails belong to us legally;
are intellectual property.
There was a case like this on another List; the same point of view was
put there: I hope the person who asked respects the position as put
and our views.
Finally a US academic did quote e-mails from a List of which we are
both members; she was attacked for it strongly, publicly. Quite
rightly, too
