I agree 100% - I told him that it's not possible, but was curious of the answer as it might make sense for a VERY small organization that needs to contain sensitive data, BUT I can't imagine doing this myself or realistically for our business - what a mess that would be.
You've confirmed my thoughts. Thanks.

"Not that I know of" Even if company emails is considered company 'property' at times, there's still a question of privacy and what laws he COULD be breaking doing as such. and that's.. like you said, a dumb idea.

I can go on, there are just a LOT of reasons why you do NOT want to allow this. -Matt __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 5062 (20100426) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 5062 (20100426) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
