And without seeing them, their alleged existence isn' t evidentiary.
And if you count such as evidence - the xtian argument of " it' s in the Bible" would match your level of " proof".
Well, no. Mundane claims don’t require the level of evidence that supernatural claims do, so in this case, emails and texts (if their authenticity could be verified) would absolutely be corroborating, physical evidence of a verbal claim. In any case, it’s a moot point because Mueller is disputing the report.

It's not really moot, since online biker is vindicated in his skepticism. People absolutely believed the buzzfeed report, which made references to emails that supposedly corroborated their story. We haven't seen those emails, and have no idea of what they say or even if they exist. The level of faith that people had in the buzzfeed report was somewhat like the faith that mormons have in the existence of the golden plates that the book of mormon was supposedly copied from.
Of course, we don't know how inaccurate the buzzfeed report is. We only know that it was at least inaccurate enough to make Mueller feel the need to speak up.
