All, 

I have pretty much been lurking on this list for awhile now.
I really respect the Technical opinions that most have offered,
Not to mention, the biting sarcasm keeps me in fits of laughter.

That Said, I have a client that has asked me a question that I don't
Have the legal expertise to answer, and was curious if 

1. Any of you have dealt with a similar experience and 
2. Could point me to a specific, reference in writing.

I was recently approached by my client to get access to one of their
employees email. I told them to hold off, I would have to check if I was
legally able to do that for them. The equipment is owned by my client. There
is Policy in the employee handbook states that Email is for business use
only. My client has reason to believe an employee is sending corporate
information, (vendor lists and pricing) Offsite to someone outside their
company. My client and I both reside in the U.S., in the state of Maryland.
Does anyone know what the legal ramifications of viewing/reviewing an
employees email are?
