Companies will not be allowed to do it. Police will need a court order. As for the technical side, I use postfix with virus protection from 'hbedv' in Germany. I have the setting 'always_bcc = user' in main.cf and have an archive account set up. This is for backup/archival puposes only. The file never gets read unless the user request a copy of the email. The email file is rotated on a regular basis. What your boss is suggesting also boils my blood...tell him to get a life! David
