Someone accessed my mailbox and moved some of my items to their mailbox without having permissions to my mailbox. How did they do it? The person has full access to the Exchange Server 5.5 SP2 machine via a remote desktop application.

This person would have to Admin rights to the Exchange server, otherwise your security on Exchange is zilch.

YOu can check which accounts have Server admin rights, select the object in Exchange Administrator and select File|Properties|Permissions.

Hope this helps

I tried logging in with the Administrator's username and password and setting up Outlook but it doesn't work. I don't think he has the Administrator's password.

It is also possible that they have your password, and/or the Administrator password.

Once they have that, the sky's the limit.
