How about telling them no since it is a security risk and note that in
your written policy to support that reply?  Although if you do tell them
no you still have a hole when users check web-based email via HTTP.  I
have seen many firms that block access to any website with the word
"mail" anywhere in the URL.

As a solution if you do want to allow POP and HTTP based email for users
I have seen good products that are border appliances checking all
traffic on HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, POP, IMAP etc and scanning for viruses and
certain blocking attachment types, mime types.  Symantec makes one that
does this as do other vendors.

We restrict all outgoing traffic to http only. For incomming emails we
use TrendMicro WirusWall on our SMTP server. Now some users in our LAN
want to acces pop3 servers in Internet via pop3 protocol. I'm wondering
if there exists any antivirus solution for such situation (I mean
something like pop3 AV proxy)? Any expiriences? Lukas
