Is a company that your resigned from allowed to go into the company email?


Question:
Is your previous CEO allowed to go into your email account that they disconnected and cut and paste emails that you had with clients to your new CEO and clients to try and ruin you? Isnt there some kind of law for that?

Answers:
No, any electronic comunications you send or received using their equipment on their time is their property and can use it in any way they deem fit AS LONG AS the usage itself doesn't break the law. You'd have to prove 1.) that the e-mails ARE being sent and contain your writing and 2.) this action constitutes libel or obvious defamation of character. That would be exceedingly difficult to prove. Otherwise anything else is fair use...
No. A company computer is theirs and you have no expectation of privacy. Sorry.
Yes, it's all owned by the company. They own any email account they set up for you while you worked for them. As a matter of fact, if they wanted to, they could have looked at any of your emails while you worked there and copied and pasted anything they wanted from them.
The company owns all data in its computers, including e-mail sent through its servers.
