It is possible to check this on the Event Viewer for the Exchange server
under the security section as every access of a mailbox by other than the
owner is logged.  You need to have the appropriate level of logging
configured (can't remember where this is configured).  However if you want
alerting etc, I recommend looking at ELM? (Event Log Manager)  from our
hosts at Sunbelt software:)  It apparently does all this stuff.

On another note, This is where the careful vetting of people in these
positions of trust is essential.  I'm not sure who said it but I remember
hearing it quoted here frequently that "there are seldom good technical
solutions to social problems"  .  It should be part of your terms of
employment for IT staff that they read and agree to your acceptable
behaviour policy (you do have one?) which would include the obvious stuff
about privacy, p0rn and web usage, etc.  If they are caught breaching this
policy, it then becomes a HR problem.

Subject: MS Exchange Server 5.5 Security Issue


Hi,

Our company is using MS Exchange Server 5.5.

I'm looking for an NT utilities that could help me to track any illegal
users that logging into others people mailbox.

This is a very important issue for security. Just imagine, if an IT staff
that had the administration permission (service account) on MS Exchange
Server 5.5, he/she could view whoever mailbox, including the managing
director mailbox.

So, could somebody provide me a solution of providing the tracking report
for illegal users, that  open others people mailbox?  If he/she is NOT the
owner of the mailbox, the tracking report will be provide and alert message
will be sending out.

Thanks.
