How would you react to someone opening your mail?

Our email is just like a letter that is sealed for us to open and not for any one else whether that person is a close friend, a family, or relative. Therefore, if somebody opened my email account without my permission, I would really get angry, and that person will hear from me. It becomes nasty when that person not only open but use it for something. I hope that the one who open and read your mail will learn the lesson on privacy and asking permission!

I don't mind people opening my mail at home, but thats just because I ask them too, and I know that I can trust them. However if anyone else was to open it I would be absolutly furious, and if I knew who did it I would phone the police. Its disgusting that your mum would do something like that, she clearly has no respect for boundries.

I really think its a violation of privacy for someone to that even if it is a family member or friend. When I lived with my parent my dad used to open my mail and my mom would always get mad. I still have some mail that gets sent there but its not opened anymore. privacy is a big deal to me. I had a dairy once in high school and some "friends" found it, I got in trouble for something I had put in. Since then I have never put my private thoughts or actions on paper.

Everyone should have privacy, we can not interupt, even interfere in the privacy of people affairs. Very polite and interupt.

That is against the law too. I would see to it that the person was given a fear of prison term. I don't play with my mail nor my packages. I would lose it hard on someone.

It is hard to say this one. My mom would open our mail too, unless it was from family members. Until we turned 18, then she would just hand us the envelopes. When I asked, she just said she wanted to make sure, I wasn't getting into anything that she thought I could not handle. Grown and away now, I do not care if someone in my home opens my mail, we have no secrets here. And know what I open my son's mail, but he is just turning 2, and it was mostly birthday cards. I do understand the privacy issue, and I think until you leave your home your "legal guardians" have the right to open your mail. I may be wrong about this, but the law gets iffy when it comes to family issues.
