Since I assume you mean work related correspondence on museum bought equipment on museum time, I would think they would have as much right to read your email as they would your regular business correspondence or files. Certainly all of your files are saved in an institutional archives and made available to those neding to use them. As employees our records belong to our employers. Everytime you write a letter on stationary or use your title you represent your words represent your institution. If you want private email, use your private computer on your own time. Matthew A.
