*.gov.uk email addresses

Authored by: alisonken1 on Wednesday, July 03 2013 @ 11:39 AM EDT

My take is that the email addresses ending in *.gov
(including .gov.uk) are reserved for public officials and are
used for public communication to those in office - i.e., they
are already published for the public to contact officials in
their official capacity.

If it was a private email address for personal use, I would
agree with your interpretation.
