Well, the bigggest difference is that #1 is what is known as
"unconcious disclosure" and you can control whether or not that
message ever leaves your organization. #2 would be a willful violation
of policy and would be grounds for whatever disiplinary action your
company deems appropriate.

That's easy enough to do.

Sure. It's called "policy". It's not "politics". Does the company have
a policy that prohibits the fowarding of e-mail to other e-mail
systems> If not, then don't do anything to prevent it.
>If I block users' forwarding email out by using outlook rules, that means that it blocked all no matter users forward one email out or all mails out through outlook rules? Thank you.
Only the e-mail that has the MAPI property that says it's been
AUTO-forwarded will be affected. So, yes, it will affect all such
e-mail. You can make exceptions for specific domains, but you can't
apply the exception to an individual or group -- it's all or nothing.
