> Hello Forum:
> 
> Here is a question for anyone who might know about email and laws.
> 
> I host email for 12 school districts here in Michigan.  One 
> of the  Host Administrators, without a request, forwarded 
> email from a teachers account to the Personnel Director for 
> that district.  This was done illegally and now the teachers 
> union wants to press charges against the Admin. It was proven 
> that the admin changed the forwarding on this teachers account.
> 
> The changes were made over the Web and were logged in the 
> W2xxxxxx.log. Using one IP address from a local cable ISP, 
> the admin signed in as the teacher..looking in her 
> preferences, inbox, and then ultimately changing the forward 
> and then logging out.  A couple of seconds later...still on 
> the same IP, the admin logged in as themselves, checked mail 
> and logged out.  One IP logging in as two different accounts.  
> 
> The school district reprimanded and I believe fired the 
> admin.  However,
> the teacher and her union want to know if they can do anything?   
> 
> Can the teacher press charges? Can anyone lead me to an 
> article or something to help with this?
> 
> Thanks forum, I don't know who else to ask.
