The catch is the postcards are not considered private (postman can
read them). If this applies to unencrypted emails (that can in theory
be read by the admin of any server they go through) is a question that
I've never run across an examination of.

As for the wider point:

"In law publication means distribution to just one other person (the
third party) or potential distribution (for example on a postcard or
maybe even just graffiti written on a wall)."
