Yes it can evidence a contract and other things. But not for just any purpose if other requirements apply.

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

It depends on what the communications is. Emails are certainly evidence of communication, but it will be up to a court to determine just how much weight will be put on the email in determining the truth or validity of a claim. Even though and email is sent, it is hard to prove the receipt by the intended recipient.
