I think you are needlessly worrying about editing received messages.
Certainly it is possible. My experience has shown that almost all employees
are looking to contribute to the company/dept/organization. When some user
changes a message, it will most likely be discovered or challenged. Compare
the message to the one in the sent items folder of the original sender. Then
let management deal with the incident.

Subject: RE: Editing Inbox Contents
hi ed,
i don't see a problem with editing inbox contents, in fact i find it to be a
useful feature. however, one of our site managers expressed the opinion that
someone could falsify the contents of a recieved message (say from a
customer) in order to get away with something.
> What does "skive" mean?
sorry, english slang here. Skiving (sky-ving) means not doing any work, or
not even turning up for work....
'Where's the admin gone, is he skiving off somewhere?'
'I'm so tired after last night, I might skive off work today'.
