Yep. My hope is that a "source" might get traced back to whenever and wherever those supposed emails originated. For instance, did Wei Dai release those emails in a blog post somewhere? At some point, they got from his email and into the wild. In my mind, this would really help to determine if theyre legit.
I think about the Martti Malmi/Satoshi emails that got released by him on his own github. That's coming from the source itself, not a website that may have an agenda.
read the 2014 article: https://gwern.net/doc/bitcoin/2014-smithset.pdf
(might be worth digging into the archives of the sunday times newspaper to verify/find a copy)
it sounds like the author of that article had access to the emails, and then this gwern character somehow got a copy and posted them.
