This is ambiguous. To the best of my understanding here is want is
legal and illegal (disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer).

Legal: Recipient shows, loans, or rents the letter "privately" to others.
Illegal: Recipient "publically" exhibits the letter.
Legal: Recipient publishes a paraphrase or summary of the letter.
Illegal: Recipient publishes "long" excerpts from the letter.
Legal: Recipient publishes "short" excerpts from the letter.
