I was under the impression that AA is a product that can be used for E2K3.
Perhaps I should rethink that.  Promodag is a tool that comes to mind now
that you mention it, but I don't know that it will pull that specific
information.  Much more affordable as I recall.

I'll reply to both of your threads.
 
 

I've looked into the event log, and would really hate to manually check off
user access . Too many users. I can't use just domain access, as many users
logon to the domain and never check their mail.
 
They (money crunchers) won't buy us MOM (although they would benefit in many
ways...)
 
I've looked at AppAnalyzer, but it seems like its more for E5.5, where I've
got clean installs oh E2k (getting ready to upgrade to 2K3)
 
My stock answer has been to wait till we upgrade to a 2003 domain with 2003
Exchange, and furthor tools will be available (like a query that's pull
users who haven't logged on to the domain in, say 30 days). 
 
I continue to look and learn, so I thought I'd ask the experts before
spending a half a day looking for a process that may not exist.
 
As far as installed programs, the server has no other installed programs. We
use GFI Security & Essentials, but it resides on the mail gateway server.
And each workstation has Mcafee installed. (I daily pray that suffices...)

In the last email I was describing using auditing on the Exchange servers
and cross-referencing the information.  You may, depending on your
organization, be able to use the last time they log into the network period.
There're are several scripts available on the 'net to give that type of
information.  
 
Tools that would be helpful here would be things like MOM and NetIQ
AppAnalyzer.  I think AppAnalyzer would be better for this type of report,
but I haven't been able to afford to find out so far.

I've been tasked to provide a report that show when users last opened their
mailbox. In ESM, I can go to mailboxes and there is a column "Last Logon
Time". This is no good, as each mailbox is touched by "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM"
too often to be of any use. I need to know when the user got in, not the
system. Does anyone know of, or use any such tool?
 
On a similar note, besides the Mailbox Manager, is there any other process
that would be using 
"NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" to touch a mailbox? If I stopped, or only ran the
management process, say once a month, could I then use the "Last Logon Time"
in mailboxes for this report?
 
p.s. the boss wants to know who doesn't yet use the email they've so
generously provided.....
