Exchange Server 2010 users inbox

Question
-
Hello.
I am not an expert on Exchange Server 2010 so I decided to ask for some help.
I would like to know if there is a way that I (IT Admin) can have a way to view my users inbox and be able to delete any non company emails or junk mail from their inbox.
Thank you

Yes there is, but in Exchange 2010, your 'admin' account cannot be a part of Domain Admins or any other protected group since Exchange will deny rights to mailboxes for users that are in such groups. You can check by using:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory IF ($(get-ADUser <USERID> -Properties AdminCount).AdminCount -gt 0) {Write-Host "User is in a Protected Administrative Group"}
But granting a user such access is fairly easy:
Get-MailboxDatabase | Add-MailboxPermission -user "Domain\<user or group" -AccessRights FullAccess or Get-MailboxDatabase | Add-MailboxPermission -user "<UPN>" -AccessRights FullAccess
