You can see logins by going to Exchange system manager, administrative groups, first administrative group, servers, SERVERNAME, first storage group, (private information store or Mailbox Store), logons.

To read all mailbox items:
Give yourself permissions to all mailboxes by going to Exchange system manager, administrative groups, first administrative group, servers, SERVERNAME, first storage group, (private information store or Mailbox Store), right click it, permissions, security tab,add your name or domain admins, checkboxs on send as, recieve as.
It sometimes takes 30 minutes for it to take hold. Restarting the services also does the trick.

You can see all users items with outlook:

from outlook: file, open other users folders.
or
to have it listed in outlook's folder list:(control panel, mail, exchange server properties, advanced tab, click add to open additional mailboxes)

The easiest way to view the contents of someone's mailbox is to add their mailbox to your own under the Microsoft Exchange Server property's Advanced Tab in the Services of Outlook. This automatically opens up your email and their email under your profile, (unless they are running Personal Folder mail downloads). As long as your validated on the network and so are they, you don't even need Administrative priviledge to view another's mailbox!!!!
