I am working in a network with 40/50 PC's managed by 3 people with
administrator passwords.
The OS used is GNU/Linux.
There is also a webmail service provided by the same server, which is also
maintained
by the same people.
My question is the following:
Since the administrator has of course access to all user files, does this
mean that
one with administrator privileges can read everybody's emails?
Yes it does. Since the mail is stored in whatever way (/var/spool/mail,
maildir, SQl etc.) The root user can read these files and thus read the
mail of all the users.
