Hmmm... Suppose you deserve a refund over some business matter and you
send the details by mail/fax/email to someone who quits or is fired
before handling it.  Would you accept the excuse from the company
that "we can't give you your money because we wouldn't feel right
about rummaging through this ex-employee's office"?  How is an
internal memo any different?  In a business situation wouldn't you
expect someone to check for any unfinished business?  What about
new mail/fax/email that comes in after the person leaves?
