Great. So let me fess up and then open a new topic with the issue itself.
I read my lover's email. This is a violation of his privacy and a no-no by any cultural norm. I know good from bad, but it does not deter me. My behavior does not even disgust me. Do not get the impression that I am an altogether depraved person. I am not. For instance, I have adopted an adult kitty whom no one wanted to adopt because she has feline immunodeficiency virus. I feed her the healthiest, most expensive cat food so that she can live long. When I walk, I make an effort not to step on bugs in order to prolong their lives. So I am definitely not your typical antisocial personality disorder type that starts with cruelty towards animals - I am the opposite. Yet, I read my lover's email.
It was just opportunistic. He visited me and he did not have his computer with him. He logged on from mine and did not log off. I have his email client open in my Firefox. I checked the password manager of Firefox and no, it didn't remember his password - so I do not know it - but his email client does not time out logged in sessions.
I think that installing Firefox updates may trigger logging out, so for the time being I plan not to update my Firefox and in case it starts misbehaving, to use Safari or Chrome instead, keeping the Firefox window with his email open. Eventually, I am sure, some technical issue will log me out and I will stop, but I have no intention to log myself out for now, because in this particular regard I am a cold, depraved person without consciousness. Anti-social. Also, when I visit him in the winter, I will either take my work laptop with me or no computer at all, using the Android for internet access, or just taking an offline vacation altogether - in any event, he won't know. Maybe with time I will get a wake-up call from my consciousness and log out myself, celebrating a victory of consciousness over wickedness. Who knows. But for now we have what we have. It is entirely possible that I will soon get bored: his current email traffic is very low and mostly consists of letters to and from me, anyway, so it is not particularly interesting, and I have read past emails already.
With that in place, can I proceed?
