One question I have had: what if the author gives you permission to copy an entire email somewhere, including email address? That seems to me to be pretty verifiable, unless someone accuses you of fabricating the entire thing. The only question is where to put the email - WikiSource?
That would seem to fall vaguely in the same category as a blog entry by the same author; better than having no documentation, but not nearly as good as something peer-reviewed.
