All prizes would be lawfull within shariah p.s there is no other fee involved.

Answer:

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

If there are no monetary charges for entering the competition via e-mail and the sponsors of the competition are merely gifting away certain prizes, it will be permissible to enter such a competition.

And Allah knows best
