I dont think im understanding this right....is he just your friend or is her your boyfriend? Do y'all live together?
This is my take on it.
When you cheated, you betrayed him, and no matter how long ago it was, how much you apologized, whether you admitted it or not, it takes time and effort for a broken heart to heal, as well as time to be able to trust again.
My DH had done things in the past, that it took a long time to get over. I became a spy, but only because his behavior and choices, made me. I feel, that when your in a relationship, there should be NO secrets, and Dr.Phil says that after infidelity (emotional or physical) occurs, the cheater needs to be as transparent as they can be. So, I think, if it makes him more secure, to check your things, if theres nothing to hide, why be concerned about it, especially, if its just online stuff. Be greatful, hes not as bad as some guys on Maury that check their girlfriends cell phones, bills, correspondences, underwear, etc.
Based upon my spying (which I not only got busted doing, but also told DH, just wanted to letcha know I was in your stuff today), I gained wisdom and trust back. There was no suspicious behaviors, and nothing to be upset about online.
While you may feel its intrusive, or that he doesnt trust you...maybe you need to re-evaluate the relationship. Before you cheated, did he do this? Are you upset because you have something to hide? Are you upset because he doesnt trust you? Have you ever put yourself in his shoes? Did he cheat on you? If he did, were you spying without him knowing it? Dr. Phils website has great articles (or whatever their called) about infidelity and relationships.
I hope your not offended by my post. I did not mean to hurt you, or defend you BF's behavior, nor imply either of you were bad people. I also hope, you never feel the pain of someone cheating on you.

Wow! You really summed it up in a nutshell! Good job!
I had a boyfriend years ago that did the cheating, and let me tell you...the pain I felt due to his act was horrible. Not only did it hurt but the trust went right out the window! And for us, it never came back.
I hope you guys can overcome this. Good luck.

dirti....
I must disagree with most people on here, I once had a boyfriend who snooped on my - reading emails, phone bills, text messages, cell phone log, etc. I never cheated on him. He was cheating on ME! People judge others the way they judge themselves. He was ultra paranoid that I may be cheating on him because of his own behaviours. He broke my heart but did me a HUGE favor. I will never put up with that behaviour again. You should dump him. If he can't get over your cheating experience, then he is holding you back. Likewise, you need to get over your cheating act, you don't deserve to be snooped.

I think trust is broken in this relationship. He does not trust you, and it seems that you cant trust him any more......just my thoughts

I would have thought by now he'd been more at ease & not snooped by now.Yes,you feel wrong.
My guy sees this as a not to do thing.I see it as if nothing to hide then why not let partner know.I don't mean snooping,I mean openly knowing each others passswords & having access if ever wants to.I assume mostly my guy would get business stuff but I'm probably wrong,women like him lol.
I'm surprised how many are horrified at their partners having access to their emails.I guess they'd get caught *****ing bout their partners  .I get nervous about such secrecy personally but learning accept my guy likes it this way.Many just don't have that openess & it's everyone's right.He just knows if I think something's going on,he'll know about it & he knows that's how it is.

It's the price you pay for cheating, I'm afraid. Perhaps this is his way of protecting the privacy of his sexual health, eg making sure he doesn't catch anything. Because that's where my mind would be. It's great he's given you another chance, I don't think I'd be able to do that
