Your HR VP is correct and this is pretty common especially in places like retail operations. Another mechanism I believe you can use is logon hours in AD if you have access to that degree of info.
You'll also need to shut down ActiveSync, Outlook Anywhere, and Exchange Web Services for this set of folks to cover your bases.

Her main concern is that if it discovered that an hourly employee accesses their work email while they are not on the clock, they could be considered to have been working and might have to be paid overtime. I don't know how true that is, but this is her field of expertise, and I believe she has checked with the lawyers and they agree. I can do this easily enough, but I'm wondering if this is a common policy or if she is being a little overboard about this. I personally have never encountered a policy like this before. Anybody else have this kind of email policy at their work place?
