You'll need to read the terms and conditions for usage. IIRC their not as uptight as that lot over at SCRAN.

"Emails can be protected by copyright too. Just because it's easier to forward an email than a letter does nothing to weaken that protection."
Not every letter or email will enjoy copyright protection, which is reserved for works which involve original skill or labour and which do not involve copying the work of another person. Originality in this context does not require the work to be an original or inventive thought; it only requires originality in the execution or expression of the thought. However, where existing subject matter is used by an author, independent skill must be applied to justify copyright protection for a resulting work.
