None of the responses to this question seem to consider the fact that
the email which he was asked to retrieve was sent by the same person
who wants it. If the sender had made a carbon copy, this wouldn't be
necessary. But since the sender wrote the memo in the first place, is
this really a violation of privacy in the sense that the sender
would learn something he didn't already know?
