Question is: If you send emails to a company about a situation that could only be relevant to them and you, are they allowed to provide a third party with copies of your emails including your email address?
Any Legal Eagles Out There?

Probably, unless there was some confidentiality agreement.
You could try and rely on one of these if they fit the circumstances:
Data Protection Act - for personal information about you.
Copyright - any original work created by you.
HRA article 8 - much the same as DPA, but potentially wider scope.
Ofcom may be useful

Did you mark the emails as either Confidential or Restricted?
Did you state in the email that they where private and they where not to be passed onto a third party?
