Legally speaking, it is perfectly OK for you to pass on whatever you want. Once an email hits your mailbox, you can do whatever you want with it.
Those legal disclaimers that corporations always put at the bottom of their emails, they aren't legally binding. So regardless of whether people put a message at the bottom of their email or not, you are allowed to forward whatever you want.

Subject: [Highland Park] redistribution of messages
I'd like to suggest that we ask people to write at
the bottom of their messages if it is ok to pass on. Many times people
have requested we share recommendations, but it is cumbersome to write for
permission to all people that respond to you. Also, sometimes people ask
if you know anyone that would be interested in something they are
posting, but neglect to say we can redistribute. Thanks for such a
great list and resource!
