Can SBS2008 Administrator access a client's emails and access to laptop

Dear All,

Just a quick question regarding the Administrator account on SBS2008.

We have a client laptop here in the office but not the password as the employee is no longer working with the company. We'd like access the emails and we use Exchange 2007 that is bundled with SBS.

If we log on to the Server, can we access the emails via exchange for the particular client and, can we just reset the password for that person so that we can create a new one on the laptop by enforcement? In other words, does it matter whether we have the client's current password or not to get access?

Regards and thanks,

Paul

Will this reset give us access to the client locally on the laptop as well as the network, or just Network access with the new password?

Cheers,

But logging onto the client laptop as the Server Administrator doesn't give access to the particular users account, does it?

Can we also access the users emails via Exchange through the server, ie. without accessing the laptop?
