Just read this thread for the very 1st time.
Nice poem and it seems to have touched quite a few of you.
But
I agree with Turk, there are some sad scamming gits out there that purely use this sort of mail for personal gain. It has happened many time before and will do many times again.
But you have options.
By posting the content of the email on here you have stopped the email gathering scam and touched some of the people that have read it so far.
Plus
To stop a scam like this it is simple. If you like the content and want to share it, then be very carefull how you forward it.
Most posts that get forwarded have a list of where they have allready been to, we dont know these people, and if the OP puts his details in there and some how manage to keep it there then he gets all the collected addy's automatically sent to him.
So just copy and paste the text that you need to into a new mail and add your own trusted recipients to mail it to.
If you want to add the footnote for them to forward it, copy and paste all the relevnt text into a new notepad and it should (hopefully) do away with any hidden hyperlinks etc and stop the scam continuing, but allowing the message to bless many others.
