OP here. I was thinking the same thing!

The responses have been interesting and I'm surprised that so many think we should just let it go. It's food for thought. We thought that perhaps we could make my mom end it by telling her how awful and selfish she is being. [b]If it is found out I think it would make our relationship with my aunt very hard (hard for her to be around us) and it would presumably ruin the remaining (good) relationship between my mom & dad not to mention my mom and the rest of my dad's family.[/b] It would turn upside 3 generations of a small and close family that have, for better or worse, found a way to forgive and move forward through lots of sh&% including cheating.

The mere fact that now [b]FOUR[/b] (6 if you include the cheaters) people know of the affair increases the likelihood that something is going to be said and it is all going to come screaming out of the closet.  As far as everyone finding out I can't help but feel you hold responsibility for this issue since you read the emails and then shared the information with 3 other people.  I don't think your issue is with the cheating, but with the fact it is threatening to upset your life balance.  When you first saw the email you should have closed the email and walked away.  Ignorance is bliss.  The fact the people involved are using aliases means you had to do some digging to figure out who the other person was.  [/quote]
