Some companies are up front and make you sign a piece of paper to the effect that when your at work... Here at TeleCheck, we had to sign a piece of paper that promised that we wouldn't read each *other's* mail, after a nasty incident in which involved an employee and forged mail ardently confessing is new found homosexuality (boy was be suprised...). But that was a long time ago, which predates the notices we had to sign. The point was clear. Don't read your supervisor's mail or you will be terminated (as an employee was). -- Joe N.

There is a new O'Reilly book out called _Computer Crime_ that covers the
entire arena in more detail than you'll be likely to ever need. I hope.
It's decidedly oriented towards the law enforcement community, not
"Computer Folk". Though the title focuses on crime, you'll find what
you need here.
