I interpret the legalese on the Terms of Service to mean that by sending content to a Groups.io group, you grant Groups.io the right to display that content on that Groups.io group, but you do not grant Groups.io any other intellectual property rights in your content.

As for copyright, things are not simple, but basically, for the most part, the author of any e-mail is automatically the copyright holder of that e-mail's content (unless he writes the e-mail in his capacity as an employee, in which case the employer is the copyright holder, or unless the content is published in the USA, in which case it's even more complicated, because different states have different copyright laws).
