Emailing backup codes doesn't sound like a good idea. You give the keys to the kingdom to email provider or anyone who would be able to access your mailbox.

If the email is busted open, then it would already have been possible to do a a forgot password recovery (which i presume uses emails).

Therefore, backup codes are no less secure than that.
