Many of these emails have a bit of a hostile tone (my original post included, mea culpa), and include sentences like "Anyone that says otherwise is wrong", "That statement is false" and "Get over it.">>

"That statement is false" is not hostile. It's a direct factual statement imho. That you read it as hostile is the issue. Read each email as if spoken by a robot with no emotions whatsoever. Then you won't feel defensive.
