- Audit Logs are stored in the Mailboxes. That's how it is designed. Don't know any other way.
Hi Marek_G
What Problem are you trying to solve?
Depending on the Protocol and what you want to archieve you can use LogParser Studio

- Hi, because of the audit trail of the user logging in to the mailbox. TrackingLogs are in the installation directory, but I don't know where to look for logins. Probably IIS, but if you have more detailed info where what is so thank you. We do not have MailboxAuditLog set on mailabox, but for example IIS will have information.
thanxHi Marek_G
For Audit Purposes there exists only Mailbox Audit Log. But that has to be configured depending on your needs (and Licenses in Exchange Online)

You won't get such data from IIS Logs.
