Legal Advice: Posting Hate Mail (sent to me) on a Public Website

For those of you who are lawyers and law students, I know there are ethical issues involving how and when you can provide advice, so I understand if you can't give me "official legal advice" but I would appreciate some guidance.

A member of my fraternity sent me a piece of hate mail. Clearly unwanted. Not as strongly worded as it could have been, but definitely an unwanted piece of mail that was meant to criticize my work, belittle my sexual orientation, and question my membership in the fraternity.

I posted the email, along with his name and email address in my blog.

He is now threatening legal action.

What is your opinion on the legality of posting hate mail on a public website?
