"Fair use" question: If you know you won't be able to get permission to use somebody's email in something you're writing for publication, can you quote a few selective words from their email like "not our policy"?

I KNOW THIS! There is a 4 point test to see if a thing is fair use. TLDR: yes, that will probably be ok longer >>>

Email and letters are, I believe, considered copyrighted with the content owned by the person who wrote them. Not the same as quoting from a passage in a book, etc., that is a publicly published work. I could be wrong. Not a lawyer; just a person who's driven past a law school.
