How about you don't access it?  He may have a good reason for keeping it from you.  My wife and I both have personal email accounts that the other person does not have access.  I trust her to manage her own email and show me what she wants to and vice versa.  In fact, I use that email account to receive shipping confirmations for just about everything I've purchased for her online.  Wouldn't want her to see that, would I?\n\nEither way no one hear (in their right mind) would give you advice on how to illegally access anyone else's email.  If he doesn't want to show you or even admit that he has that email account, that's his business.  And his legal right to keep it private.

They do that in order to prevent confidential document from going out. The staff can send confidential information through email.

Regardless of what you are trying to say, remember that it is perfectly legal for your employer to monitor any electronic e-mail to or from you while at work!  If you use company computer connections.  Your question is rather vague.  Mail as in email, should be only for business, or only as specifically allowed in writing by your management.  There are monitoring programs for servers that specifically hit office abuse of email.  Employees are fined or otherwise disiplined, not good.  Electronic devices are controlled by individual corporate policies and proceedures.  Most formally do not allow private devices, but seem to overlook most of the time, except when the privledge is abused or highlighted (Like in the middle of a important staff meeting when your cell phone song rings out)!\n\nHave a good day.

well dear,  it is quite illegal to get a software that can retrieve the information about the owner of an email address from the mail server.\n  i have got one and i can tell you the information about you i got from your email address.\nbut it is not on the Internet so u write me a mail and i will reply you with the software as an attachment or i can out it up in my website for you go there and download it, as soon as you download i will remove it.\n\nplease remember its still illegal.

He can probably find out since your activities are occurring on his network.  I would be extremely careful.  Often inappropriate network usage (however your boss defines that term) is a terminable offense (meaning you could be fired for it).

Yes. You are protected under Federal Law. You must be able to prove the employer gave information other than date of employment and job type.

The only way to know is if there was an unread mail that shows as read now. The only way to be secure is to change your pwd often and use complicated ones.

attorneys are not obligated to disclose any information for privacy purpose and protection of the worker.\n\nYou can try to get a court order to get such disclosures.

if you open the email in the bottom (tiny letters) it has the option of unsuscribing from it. if it does not. you can sue them. because it is illegal

absolutely not, there is no possible way they can determine that you have sent that email to 5 people.

No. Unless you are the hosting server or a hacker or a government official for the Internal Security Act\n\nIf you are a hacker, you have full access. If you host yahoo or google or microsoft, under special permission you can view those. If you are an official under the ISA monitoring the e mails of people to detect suspicious activity, you can have access to them.
