Of course, considering the temper tantrum threat Mladen made, posting it to Lugnet
probably eliminated any chance at all of Mladen getting any sympathy whatsoever.

Actually, I hear its bad form to publish private email content to a public
forum without the permission of the author.

That's interesting.  I generally assume that anything I send might end up
in such a forum, whether I wish it or not, so I usually try to comport
myself in a way I wouldn't be embarrassed to own up to later (though my
correspondents may beg to differ!)

AFAIK, E-mail is generally considered private.  Much like other personal
correspondance.  Obviously it's not a very enforcable convention, but there
ya go.

I'm with Richard and James on this, one should NEVER share someone's private
email without permission (I mean unless it contains a serious death threat or
something).  I do agree that it is safer to assume that what one says could end
up in a public forum, so I would not say anything I preferred to keep private
unless I completely trusted my correspondent.
