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.
thanx

Hi 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.
