Doesn't that then mean:

1) I have full copyright of all emails Gareth sends, as I've opened the
email and have to accept *all* responsibility?

2) Hypothetically speaking, Gareth sends me an email threatening to kill
a close friend of mine. Close friend gets killed. Police find email.
Police notice I have all responsibility for what was written in the email.
Police put two and two together and make 5. I do porridge for 20 years.

Hmmm...
