Republication of emails without author's consent
Any time I am notified of an email published on a page without the authors permission, I remove it. I have always done this. This statement I garnered from Mike Godwin, who is much more eloquent than I (hence the delay in response) best explains the reasoning:
Although we encourage self-expression by users on their talk pages, we do not allow reproduction of other authors' expression on talk pages, absent (a) the other authors' permission or (b) an expressed and justified claim that reproduction of the other authors' expression is lawful under the law of copyright.
Regarding the "Evidence" claim; removal of this email which led to this particular notice does not constitute "suppression" by any means. If the email is as prevalent and widespread as the claims indicate, then suppression is irrelevant. Evidence may be submitted to the proper venue. Cary Bass
