You can't legally view all of someone's email without reasonable cause, even if it is on company owned equipment. Even then your search/viewing must be limited to whatever search criteria you are looking for.

I often recover messages for users from our Barracuda. (We also relay outbound messages through it to take advantage of the invalid bounce suppression feature.)

I need this for some cloak-and-dagger investigative purposes - I suppose I could just grant myself permissions to the user's mailbox and forward myself all their Sent Items, but a) would they be able to tell I'd done this? and b) I'm assuming this wouldn't cover any stuff they may have permanently deleted? I presume there must be other ways to achieve this - I apologise for my lack of Exchange knowledge, I am not an Exchange bod by any stretch of the imagination. TIA, JRR -- "On two occasions...I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'
