We have Exchange Server 5.5. Does anyone know how to read an Exchange database using MS Access or another database tool? We are trying to take info. in the exchange database on email activity to track network traffic. At least that is the end goal so we can determine which users are clogging the email server.

You can't access the Exchange database using standard tools like MS Access. For information about mailbox activity, there are third party tools that might help like Promodag (http://www.promodag.com/) and Bindview (www.bindview.com).

YOu probably know this, but just in case... you can also use the Exchange Administrator program to look at mailbox sizes etc..
