Lee, Does the log show what they accessed in the mailbox? If not, then someone could deny what they did, and say "Well I was looking at his calendar to see if he was free this afternoon". Had someone do that who worked for me, back in the exchange 2000 days. Of course 2000 was much easier to get into. Only asking, as curious what 2007 can log, detail wise.

The issue is on a busy box this log could get really large really quick. You can set up auditing to catch the IP address of the PC logging into the box, beyond that it would take research to track down who was logged in to that PC at that time. I wrote a tutorial to do this in Exchange 2003, I could probably do so for Exchange 2007 this weekend if it would be beneficial.

As an end user, not sure that you would be able to get that information for your whole mailbox. Even as an admin, with the default tools out of the box, I think it only showed the last logged in user to the mailbox. That could pose an issue if your backup software ran as a user service account, it would show them more than likely. Hope that helps some.
