Harrison, Marion Edwyn Esq. E-Mail: When Convenience And Danger Collide. American Daily. Aug. 24, 2004.

Multiple examples of how e-mails have come back to haunt various companies. Touches on (directly or by implication): zeroing out e-mail data; malicious use of others' e-mail; ISP staff reading e-mail relayed through their network; risks of e-mail vs. oral discourse; risk of misinterpretation associated with hastily typed e-mail, and finally; risks of personal use of business e-mail systems, including inadvertant buty apparent actions as an authorized agent and associated liability. Very good article.
