Using the native Exchange 5.5 and Outlook 97, is it possible for an administrator to open client emails? In addition, is there a way to get statistics on email on the exchange server (ie. number of emails in each user mailbox, including unread, deleted items, etc)?

You can open up any user's mailbox in Exchange 5.5 with any version of Outlook if you are logged in as the service account. Or you can populate the site, config and org containers with other groups/IDs and grant rights accordingly (or apply to individual mailboxes).

For statistics; some of the info you seek can be found in Exchange administrator under servername\Private IS\Mailbox resources. Or, you can logon to a mailbox, right-click on the root and look at mailbox resources that way.

If you've got money to spend, NetIQ, Bindview and other vendors have advanced reporting tools.
