True enough.
However, the effects of the distinction will depend on the legislation of the country.
Maybe (in my country) the mail can be archived, but then they may require a permission or order to use the backup, for something different than restoring a backup.
Certainly. Archiving of email is one of the service offerings of my company, and we have researched many of the EU legislations/ jurisdictions very carefully. I am not an expert, but my understanding is that the above is the general situation, i.e. : reading != archiving and a machine reading the email != the employer reading the email. plus what you added - once the mail has been archived, the only access is by court order, with the exception of the person involved permitting the access or accessing the archive him/herself. Optionally, we encrypt the archive using a customer's key, meaning any and all access is under control of the customer.
