Did the Debian person agree in advance to keep the email secret? Did you advise him you wanted it kept secret? Otherwise I'd think the natural instinct of an 'open source' person would be not to hide anything that wasn't truly secret. So I think you would have to impress on him your particular (and peculiar?) desire to keep your message private.
