Best way to stop is too stop, if you have the conscious decision to turn on the PC, load up the internet browser and log on his email and then read them, you sure can stop at logging on his email and do something else on the net

Make the decision to really move on. That's how.

If theres nothing interesting, then its beyond me why you continue to want to do it. However you need to start respecting peoples privacy. My emails are very private. Very private. I wouldn't like it if someone went through my emails whatsoever.
So as I said, regardless of what happened in the past, just leave it alone. Find something else to do with you time, to amuse yourself and turn into a healthy habit.

Next time you are in his email account, you use it to send an email to himself. (Very few systems prevent an account from sending to email itself - and those that do, often allow the sending account to list itself as a "CC" or "BCC".)
Use a subject line like "Your email password" and the body of the message is simply "The password to your email account has been compromised. Please change it.".
It'll be difficult to impossible for him to know who sent him the message, or how long this has been going on.
From there, it's up to him.
