  1. A little more detail would be helpful here.  If you are talking about an e-mail account issued by your employer, then the Company "owns" the e-mail address and system and they can do what they want / need.  An employee should have no expectation of privacy when using a company owned computer, network, e-mail or chat system.  If you are talking about personal e-mail accessed on a company owned computer, the same applies as far as the use of the company equipment goes.

    Now, if you are talking about a personal e-mail account on a privately owned computer where you pay for the internet access, then you may have a gripe.


  2. Well considering the fact that important information such as bank statements account transactions things dealing with money that is private information is normally kept in email. I would have to say Yes, Def
