- Concur. Emails are not public domain unless their authors declare it to be so. Otherwise, they are copyrighted immediately upon creation. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 16:16, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
- Peter, You do not need to snap at me. Geez. Most emails if are relasing them are private, so you lose that privatecy once you post them and are then released under {{PD}}. You can check the law, but I know that is what it says. E-mails, once relased to the public are {{PD}}. --Shane (T - C - E) 20:38, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
