Lee,

Leon did not tell you to post it in your own words. That was my suggestion so you could convey something you clearly think needs to be conveyed, but without posting an actual email

The reason I agree with Leon's policy is exactly for the reasons he states - it is too easy to edit an email and present it as the sender's words. I would hate to think that someone could take my private communication, modify it to make me look stupid, and post it on this board.

I know it may seem unfair to those that would post emails honestly and accurately with no edits, but in this case it seems to me that erring on the side of conservatism is the best move. I would rather have to put a received email into my own words, giving up the ability to post it directly, than risk that anyone else could completely corrupt my words and post them here.
