Thanks for your comments, MT. I have changed "rebroadcasting" to "redistribution."

Generally, the gist of the rest of the message is this. Although we technically have the right to republish information from an email, the sender may have chosen that medium because he or she expected a level of privacy. So, I'm requesting that posters use discretion when disseminating information they receive in emails. I think you said it much better than I did:

People should (but are generally not required to) treat received email as something that should not be exposed without permission of the author...[or] unless there was clearly no expectation of privacy (either it was sent to a large group or the writer has given permission for its release).
