I may have read wrong, but I think he's trying to intercept mail --
like, for reading, not for sending to the bit bucket.
If that's the case, then that is most definitely not playing fair.
Network managers, legal departments, and HR managers all take an
exceedingly dim view of such things, not to mention the general ethics
of systems administrators. It's just wrong, no matter what somebody may
have done, to intercept their private conversations. It is even more
wrong if you happen to be root somewhere on the network; root users are
vested with an extra responsibility, even if nobody has ever told you
so, to play extra-cautiously around the network.
The things that PHD wants to do are exceedingly easy for a root user
given the right kind of network; knowing how, and even sharing the
information on how, is something that I believe all should be free to
do; but actually doing so is the highest of crimes in the networked
world, where privacy is rapidly being eroded from all sides as it is.
