If they do not know you are reading it and they would not like it then it is wrong!

Of course. It is a sign of insecurity. However, I did it once. I feel kind of ashamed. He left his computer screen with the email open. I was brushing my hair and glanced at it, and saw his ex-girlfriend's name. So naturally, I opened it up and saw a picture of her posing and it said something akin to "See...still sexy?"
Was I ever angry. I left the picture open for him when he came back in the room. Apparently, she had been emailing him and he said he hadn't even opened the attachment. She was a really old girlfriend and they had been friends on and off since then. But the moral of the story is, he stopped allowing emails from her in his box. But not before she told him that she was dying of cancer and moving to Vegas with some guy who had agreed to marry her. She had wanted them to be friends again before she left. I have no idea if this was true or not, but of course, I felt guilty. She didn't even live in the same area. So now I feel kind of terrible. I have felt too ashamed to ask him about it and I assume they have stopped speaking. He was a little shocked at first but hasn't said a word about her since then. He had made the mistake when we first started living together, of talking about her occasionally, as a part of the past, the way he would mention memories with other friends, etc. And of course, he learned that he can't do that, even if it is occasional and meaningless.
So...just don't. If that person is cheating you'll find out in a different more direct way.

Well, I think that really depends on WHY you're reading it.. Like, for example....
If the two of you are very open with everything, and have no issues with each other seeing your e-mails, or checking text/voice messages for each other.. then I don't see how it could be an issue.
BUT...
If you're doing it out of insecurity or jealousy.. then I think that you need to really sit down and talk about the issues that are causing you to feel that way.
While I think it's perfectly alright for a couple to see/hear things that their partner sends out or recieves.. It's absolutely NOT right to be sneaky and snoop through thier stuff.. as that can only cause resentment and a lack of trust.

Well I would say if he gave you his password or knows you have it he must not care if you read his e-mails. Me and my husband read each others because we had nothing to hide from each other. Besides when you get married whats yours is his and whats his is yours. lol so that makes the emails yours too.

Maybe. I've done it to my boyfriend before. He can sometimes be horrible about explaining things, so I just checked his email to get the whole story. Not that he was trying to hide things from me, he just explains things in weird ways sometimes-at least to me it's weird.

well to a since it is. Because you should have trust in your relationship. But if your significant other doesn't have anything to hide them he shouldn't mind.

As long as they don't mind. I log on to my husband's email all the time, and he knows my password too, I am not sure if he checks it. I think if you have nothing to hide you won't care if your other checks it.
