Commons-email has recently been promoted from the "sandbox" and sandbox projects don't have binary builds available; users have to build from source code. Clicking on the "downloads" link under "Project Documentation" on the commons-email site shows the message "This project has not released any version yet" which is correct. I'm not sure what you mean by "status section claims it is 1.0". In the project.xml file, currentVersion is set to "1.0-rc5-SNAPSHOT" which is correct. As the currentVersion value indicates, Email is very near to a 1.0 release. However the release manager has unfortunately had a family member taken seriously ill, so the release is on hold for a while. So for the moment, yes you do need to download the code from subversion and build a release using maven (building using maven is *really* easy). If you check back in a week or two there will hopefully be a shiny new 1.0 release available for download. BTW, this question would probably be better asked on the commons-user list.
