Deleted emails from mailbox

SERVER: Windows 2003 Enterprise
MAIL: Exchange Server 2003
Client: Windows XP, Office 2003

User came in this morning, and every email is gone from the mailbox.  Exchange SysMan shows only 68 items in the mailbox, of what use to be over 6,000.  Is there anyway I can tell if the user themselves deleted the files and refuses to fess up?  Or maybe find out if an SA was careless and purged the wrong mailbox?  I am curious to know if there is a log of the activity somewhere.

Actually, after verbally threatening to break the face of an Help Desk Administrator, it turns out the HD-A deleted the account.  Then, she recreated it with a mailbox and yadda yadda.  After running MBC on Exchange, I saw the orphaned mailbox and promptly reconnected it to the user account.  Thanks for the idea's though, I thought I was losing my mind for awhile there.
