Risk of Redirecting Email.

Hi people.

I have seen on some clients of mine, that when an employee leaves the
organisation, they request IT to redirect their emails to a particular
email address....personal.
What are the risks of this? I can only think of company information
being directed to this individual....which could be bad if he/she has
gone to work for a competitor. What other risks or security issues
could this give rise to?

Thanks.
