Default Server logs & harvesting IP's from emails to you of person who spyed on your email

I think someone I know has been wrongfully viewing my personal/company email account. It's possible she figured out my password. This would've occurred 2 years ago though!

Anyway, I have about 200+ emails from her, so I know most of the IP's she's used.

First, the company I host with is saying their logs only go back 1 month. Isn't that just a 'run-around' answer? Because aren't they required by law to keep logs going back XX years AND to take these requests seriously?

Second, to help me make a list of all her IP's from this folder of her emails, I'm wondering if there's and easy way to do that. I've wondered if Outlook will export only that data, or if there's a little program to do this somewhere?

Thanks,

Darwin

First things first, change your password.

Secondly, if your password is changed, she can no longer get access to your email so you don't have to worry about anything else.

Otherwise, there would be a ton of work in tracking down this person and if your end goal is to bring charges, it could get very expensive.

Default in ref to

I have a similar situation where my password may have been compromised. I agree with changing the password, but if the abuser got it once... they will get it again. Is it not possible to find out the recipients IP in a POP3 environment? The local ISP should be able to get that info and my situation just occured. Is that feasible?

If you change the password to something more encrypted, then no....they won't get it again.

The only way to check the POP3 logs are at the mail server itself.
