<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> I’ve been asked to have a look at a friend’s email policy – the preamble into it got me a little flustered and I’m just trying to work out the legitimacy of the
statement “</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;

</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:
