Assuming that it's out in copyright in your country, but in copyright in the recipient's country, then you would not be breaking any law in your own country by distributing the material, but the recipient would be breaking the law in their country by accepting the material.
Just like PG Australia are not breaking any law in having material on their server which is out of copyright in Australia, but in copyright in the US, but if you live in the US, you
are breaking the law if you download from PG Australia a book which is within copyright in the US.
