But how do those laws apply here? If people are sending their msgs from abroad, are they supposed to comply with the American law?

In short, No, unless you have the permission of the copyright holder. There is such a thing as "fair use". In this context, that would mean quoting a short passage.

All NY Times articles are available online - usually only the day they are in the paper, but some articles are carried online a little longer. And you can e-mail links to people. You can also e-mail articles, but this doesn't work when you try to e-mail a whole article to a mailing list like ours (I know because I've tried and failed). I assume it will work for e-mailing a link.
