because, if he allows these folks to access those sites to play mail from,
then he has no control ofver the mail oriented commands they chose to

control, he can't just control their sessions, well, not with other
intrusive SW, and that in and of itself would be a totally different
issue, with it's own inherent problems and such to solve, but, hardly a
firewall issue.
