Can I post email correspondence between myself and my apartment community Property Manager online?
<p>I live in a fairly upscale apartment community in a major city in Florida. I've been having major issues concerning building security and another matters that I tried to address with our property manager. Her response was dismissive, rude, argumentative and did not even address most of the issues that I brought up.  I followed up with her again and her reply was even more dismissive and arrogant.  Currently I'm trying to take my problems with our property manager with the management company ( You're very large and on apartment communities around the Southeast).  In case this doesn't go anywhere, I would like to warn another people in a review about living here.  I would like to post the emails in the review, redacted for privacy and removing any personal information to provide receipts and backup my claims.  If I did so, would that be illegal in any way?</p>

<p>No, since you are taking the precaution of redacting for privacy and removing third-parties' personal/identifying information.</p>

<p>In fact, publishing records that support your assertions is likelier to discourage the landlord about filing a defamation lawsuit. That is because you are pre-emptively disclosing evidence that your assertions are truthful, and <em>truth</em> is an absolute defense in claims of defamation. An analogous rationale applies to other forms of retaliation that the landlord might be tempted to incur.</p>
