RE: [cobalt-developers] SMTP snooping?



Yep fully understand what you are saying. I should have also explained that
this is within the UK (EU), which has had a lot happen in recent years
concerning this type of subject.

And, yes a Solicitor is the correct way to go, but never hurts to check out
if others have been asked the same thing and know the implications of this
type of monitoring which helps me prior to any meeting.

There are a lot of people who know the "implications" of this.  They are
called lawyers (no, I'm not one nor do I shill for them).  I suggest you
ask one before you do it, especially since you've gone "public" with the
fact that you know there may not be something kosher about doing this.
And talk to one familiar with your state laws; they vary and so may your
mileage.
