Thanks for your reply.

I want the technical solution. If I know the admin password I can open. 

Is  there any other solution, lets if the persons knows the admin
password even than he can not open others mail box.

regards

Ashu

Access to others mailboxes via OWA is the least of your problems. Some
one needs to think about security some more.

Yes, change the administrator password to a 15 character password
including numbers, letters (caps and small) and special characters,
write it down, stick the paper in the safe, and NO ONE USES the
administrator account. Every one uses their own account, and you give
specific permissions.
