No. Don't do this unless you have a backup job, or can survive fine for a while on unemployment. If you do want to report the behavior, report the pertinent details to the EEOC (or whatever is equivalent for your country).
They could just not respond at all to the email. They could say the person receiving it didn't understand what the email was asking so deleted it.
