Why would you say that?

File -> Export to PST

Then, SMB copy it to the local machine.

No way I know of to stop this.

However, what other access do remote clients have - is there a VPN in
place for remote/mobile individuals? If so, the same hole effectively
exists anyway. They can install (or configure natively) the VPN
client, and then use Outlook remotely anyway.

If you're truly concerned about this, I can suggest an alternative:
ssl-explorer. Google for it- I don't have the link in front of me.

It's an SSL VPN that uses a web interface - they browse to your
external host port, and are presented with a web page that gives them
a set of pre-defined applications, such as relevant TS sessions to a
TS server or their desktop, or an internal web app that you publish
through SSL, or a file share presented in a web page.

Kinda hard to slurp an entire mailbox over a TS session.
