klop Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Odd questions but can you help?? Thinking of having exchange; could peeps please confirm any of the following? If we have 2003, 2007 or 2010 (or even 2000) am i right in thinking as admin (or any domain/enterprise admin) all other users mailboxes are unavailable by default? To access mailboxes contents (read their mail) i would need to set new permissions, deliberatly for solely that purpose? Also if i were to do that and then access others mailboxes would there be a trail? Could it be shown that i had / or hadn't? I appreciate i could easily access via owa or simillar (so long as i know the password) but i'm more interested in what can be done direct from the server itself? We've had odd probs with some staff and email accounts in the past, i want to make certain i'm not settng myself up for a fall! cheers for all help.. sorry to be asking such newbie strange questions :-)
Edu-IT Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 What I would suggest is journaling. Then, if you have issues, you can login to the journaling account and carry out whatever you need to do. I'm sure there will be a way of auditing when this account is logged into and where from.
klop Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 cheers, not too sure what journalling is.. shall have a read up about it :-)

On a weekly/monthly/yearly basis you can then export this mail in Outlook for archiving.
