Thank you,

With the default software out of the box, assuming you are an
administrator
and do not mind looking through the log files, you can set up auditing
to
collect each login to the Exchange box. 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.

Mike,

Are you an administrator of the Exchange server? or an end user?  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.

Brian
