Will you peek into someone's email box, if you happen to find it open?

Hi mimpi dear! This happens to me on a daily basis. My husband usually leaves his gmail or yahoo account open for me to see his inbox. Never peeked or read any of his emails. He usually calls me to read some of his emails that he thinks that will interest me. I usually concede when asked but I am not really interested. LOL! Maybe, if there will be some suspicions of an illicit affair---probably I will! LOL! Take care and have a wonderful day! lovelots..faith

Unless I had a real valid reason and suspecting that you husband is cheating is the only one I can think of, and even then it wouldn’t feel right. I would hate anybody taking a peak in my email box so, because my motto is "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you", I would not look!

Peek at someone's mail box- Never. I have come across occassions like this so often in our office because of my role, that i invariably ask them to close the mailbox or close it myself. In fact i have felt very uncomfortable at it. At the same time my job profile and experience makes my boss sometimes ask me to go through his mails for him. Although most of it is in regard to work, there is a lot of personal stuff as well. I can't express the sort of guilty feeling that goes through me then. But he does not listen and insists saying that there is nothing for me to feel bad about since he is asking me to do it.

I would never do it.I would also have felt this way though I did not peek at all.[ When I was young and we used to play cards, even if one card of my neighboring player ,was peeping within my vision I would get panicky, and warn the person immediately.I need not have seen it even.But it is a weird unexplaineable feeeling.And , I would not like to play if I had seen it by accident.] .If it is my spouse's, there would be nothing new in it and he does not get any personal mails..And if it were my friends or colleagues or any body else there is no way I would ever do it.This is a certainty.

Hi Mimpi..How are you? When i have no time to read and respond to my mails why must i peek into other's mail box. okay.. now that i have learnt that you have gmail id also.. God must Will, so that you can give me that mail id of yours.

I do not peek into anyone's mailbox because I do not like anyone peeping into mine!!! Very often it has happened in the cyber cafe that someone's elses mail box has just popped out but I immediately sign out and do not bother reading it.

Depends...if a friend comes over and logs into her email box and forgets to log out, i will not peak but simply log her out. If it's my hubby's email box, i will look into every corner of it, make sure he's not doing anything he's not supposed to! I was not this way before, but something happened with hubby and the internet, so now, ya, i check. And plus, he refuses to give me his password, but i willingly give him mine, cuz i got nothing to hide...so why doesn't he want to give me his? anyways, i would look into his email if i could.

Nope, it happened to me when I my husband forgot to sign out in his G-talk account and automatically I saw most of his e-mail popping. I just closed and sign out his account, I know if I do such a peek thing It will caused some trouble on him and I don't want to make it happened to lost his trust on me.

no, i wouldn't do that. that would be an offense to my friend i would think . that's right up there w/reading someone's dairy, checking their phone calls sort of like stealing i would think.

just go ahead if you are sure you won't be caught .lol.

Nope. Its a complete waste of time and I respected a person's privacy no matter who could that be. A friend once asks a favor from me to open his email since it was really that important then I confirmed to him that if he really wanted me to do it, although, I have opened his email, I get straight to what is being told and never bother to remember his password nor re-opened for a sneak peak.

I could say I have been tempted to sneak a peek but have never actually done it. I believe that if I don't want others to do the same with my email then I better not do the same.

Definitely NOT. Because that is a private one. I don't have the strength to put myself on that kind of situation because i am not that kind of person. I know my limitations when it comes to confidential matters.

No, I do not peek. My husband has left his open before and I just log him out and open mine up. We also share a couple of accounts for friends, and family to use so we don't hide anything from each other.

I would never peek. But I have one doubt. Many days back, in my previous company,Once I left the mail box open carelessly. I think somehow the friend who came to my place have seen into it.

I would not like to see any friend's mail box or his mobile message inbox, without his explicit permission, even if I happen to see it. I respect his privacy and would not like to invade it unnecessarily. He may be having some personal things, which may not be necessary for me to know. What happened with you was an accident and you did not do it intentionally, so I think you need not feel guilty about it. I hope your friend did not come to know about the 'accident'.

Heya mimpz! I don't think I've done this because I rarely go in the internet cafe and haven't seen one open, lol! Back at home nobody uses the computer except me and my Husband, sometimes my nephew used it for games. As for me and my Husband we both know each others passwords and I think I peek into his mails once accidentally, I opened gmail and I think he forgot to logged off and its all there, lol.

I wouldn't look into someone else's email box, and would hope they wouldn't look in mine either. I have nothing to hide. But, to me it is like the mail from the post office, it is private. I don't open someone else's mail, they shouldn't open mine. Good topic. Hugs

Oh, never! Though sometimes I really came across such occasions when someone forgot to log out and left their mailbox open, I invariably minimize the window in case the owner will come back soon, or close the window immediately. I am not interested in others' personal affairs. It is not a virtuous act to peek into others' email. I hope I will never come across such occasions. Very awkward to handle such kind of affair.

Sometimes it happen to me. And I am a very curious person, so I cannot control myself and have to peek them. I know it is a bad habit, but I will try to change it. happy mylotting!
