Do employers have the same tools with email?
- joshenglish 9y agoYes. You can access Outlook365 and Exchange via APIs as well as Google Apps for Business. Plus Calendars, etc. Anything that uses LDAP locally and now through the 365 APIs.
- mistermann 9y agoHow does it work, an outlook 365 admin(?) Can read anyone's email that they want? Do they essentially just log onto the normal Hi as that user?
- madeofpalk 9y agoYes.
- joshenglish 9y agoIt depends on the setup. There are different nuances but through an Admin granted API key you could potentially access all emails. There are safeguards that companies put in place to restrict this as well.
- softawre 9y agoAs a manager, if I fire somebody or they leave, I get access to their mailbox via Outlook365 for like 3 months, just in case I need to grab something from it. So there must be a way to assign ownership of a mailbox to another user.
- Inverte 9y agoYeah, you can attach mailboxes to other users with Powershell. You could also just create a mail rule that sends a copy of every email everytime someone sends and receives one and they wouldn't know.
- markstos 9y agoYou mean like with Google's G-Suite? Admins can always change your password to one that they know and log in with it. Even with a 2FA policy, they can generate backup codes to use. Generally assume that yes, corporations can read their corporate email accounts. However, they may have policies that prevent their staff from accessing other employees email accounts without a specific need.
- lawnchair_larry 9y agoPassword change/login is not necessary to pull email in from G Suite.
- yoz-y 9y agoWith Google G-Suite you can also set up the Vault so every e-mail ever is stored indefinitely even after deletion. Same goes for Drive and Groups.
- codezero 9y agoGoogle Apps admins can read all the incoming and outgoing emails.
