Two more people have been arrested over abuse sent to Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner.
A 65-year-old man from Surrey and a 37-year-old man from Kent are accused of malicious communications over an email sent to the Ashton-under-Lyne MP on May 2 this year.
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said both men have been released under investigation pending further inquiries.
The latest arrests take the total number of people detained under so-called Operation Octant, the investigation into abuse and threats aimed at Ms Rayner, to eight.
