A British professional living in Dubai found out that his boss was reading his personal e-mails. He, inadvertently, saved the password to his email on his office computer, giving access to all his correspondence - whether personal, financial or professional - to his boss.
When he discovered this, the matter was taken up with the HR and the boss had to apologise to him before the team.
In an office, work email is probably your employer’s property, not yours. Most people also access their personal emails from the office computer. If they do so, all personal emails on a company-owned computer, phone or other device, may be available on the company’s server and can be accessed if somebody in command wants to.
