some possibilities:

1- block access to the web. that's probably unacceptable

2- allow'em to go but telll'em they do not have the right. then check the
logs. if you see one gone there, shoot'em up

3- block access to sites which propose web-mail. while there are too many
to block, just blocking the famous ones would reduce the use.

4- change your mind and let'em go through.

Note that web based mail is based on the http protocol, not on smtp/pop/imap.
so allowing your guys to read/write mail on the web is the same as allowing 
them
to surf. these are just GET, POST, ....
