JoannHi Lee,
I agree with Leon's policy of not posting actual private emails. There is simply no positive outcome.
However, as far as I understand the rules it is still okay to post with a summary or characterization of a private email - a summary in your own words.
If the emailer objects to the presentation he can offer and you can agree to post the entire text. If anyone else inquires you can forward the email to that person privately.
I don't see it as editing the truth. I see it as preventing private conversations from becoming public, and eventually the truth getting out if both parties dispute the way the communication is presented by the other.
So ... characterize away on the Dorskind email! lol. I missed it the first time around, and am very curious to see what I missed. If you can't or don't want to summarize it, then just answer this one question ... WAS THERE ROTTING IN A LITTLE SHACK INVOLVED?????
