RIP act

Depends on what the email policy says, and if this is signed up by the
user. An actual bit of paper with their signature helps. We have this in
the standard staff handbook which evreyone signs up on working here.

If you've got a clause about monitoring for complaince/abuse purposes
for email/internet/telehpone/fax then you'll be OK.

*But* given that RIP and the Human Rights Acts contradict each other, it
all a bit grey until this is clarified by a judge in a court case (ie
the current laws are interpretted).
