IANAL, but I would assume that the poster of a message retains
copyright property.
Thus if the original author grants permission to reproduce outside
the mailing list all should be OK.
I would anyway advocate an "ask first" approach.
I for one would always agree to see my posts quoted or reproduced
_unless_ I was utterly wrong :-)

Did they actually annoy you with some mail from their legal dept or
are you just cautious? Because otherwise I´d say just go ahead, as
what you do is citation which should be well covered under any fair
use laws.
On the other hand: "publish them in any way on any media in any
form" would also mean that you can't attach the full quotes at the
bottom of your reply, so we'd get back to the good old truncated
head postings:)

For the curious, from Apple's mailing list terms of service:
"You may not collect e-mail addresses from those archives, or
create any public archive of these messages, or publish them in
any way on any media in any form, without explicit permission of
the list administrators and Apple Computer."
So I guess I have to go through this before anything could be done.

Hey everyone ... The WO Wikibook is pretty sad at the moment, and
I have been collecting mailing list posts that i found to be
interesting since about Jan 2005. I was thinking it might be
kind of handy to organize snippets and the occasional full post
from my "filtered" archive into the corresponding categories of
the wikibook. It would seem to be helpful to have the content
categorized (vs just raw-searching the mailing list archives),
and it would give a shell of some content to work off of (maybe
if there is some base content available it might stimulate people
a bit vs it being very empty at the moment). There are, however,
some issues with doing this. I want to make sure that people are
actually OK with having content reproduced. I have no idea what
the actual legality of reproducing mailing list posts is, but
aside from that I don't want people to be annoyed even if it is
technically legal. So, if anyone responds and says they aren't
comfortable with this then I'll switch over to the ask-first
route for everyone prior to putting their messages up.
