Assumption: We are talking here about accessing email via an ISP 
connection and POP.

Questions:
1 Do (can) ISPs keep a log of IP addresses and webmail access?
2 Do ISPs keep logs of IP addresses of users of their SMPT gateways? 
Especially from outside their networks.

I have up to five email addresses on my iinet account. Suppose I give 
access to a friend or relative. Just 'cos I'm the account holder doesn't 
mean I'm the user.
