I haven't tried this myself or ever really spent too much time on email
access monitoring.
But what you mention, will this distinguish between inbox accessed and
someone viewing your calendar?

Subject: RE: Track who logs into my email
This is relatively easy to set up. In Exchange 2007, an event is written
to the Application log anytime someone accesses a mailbox for which they
are not the owner. In earlier versions of Exchange, this is not default
behavior, but you can still set this up by configuring diagnostic
logging
on the Information Store service.
The event written will be event 1016. It will include the mailbox being
accessed along with the username of the user who accessed it.
You can then use any event log monitoring tool to look for and alert on
event 1016 written for your mail box. In the absence of a monitoring
suite, you can script someone to send you an alert.

Mike,
Are you an administrator of the Exchange server? or an end user? As
an
end user, not sure that you would be able to get that information for
your whole mailbox. Even as an admin, with the default tools out of
the
box, I think it only showed the last logged in user to the mailbox.
That could pose an issue if your backup software ran as a user service
account, it would show them more than likely.
Hope that helps some.
