========================================
 ml>> i do not see anything about selectivly blocking certain URLs...

 RB>> So what do _you_ call a specific URL that appears in an email (not

 ml> simple... "block all URLs that appear email messages"

 DD> You really think this would happen in a public library?

anything is possible :)

 ml>> however this could easily be possible based on domain...

 DD> Without more info from (the other) Bob we really have no way of

true...

 DD> [...]
 ml> no i'm NOT and i KEEP telling you that! one can block on a general

 DD> Can you give us the format to block the URL Bob was thinking of,

no because i do not recall the original one that was posted... but the

 ml> it is not hard for me to grasp... hell, i configure systems like this

 DD> Even after a decade or two I'm sure you could learn something. 

i do still learn a few things every once in a while :P

 DD> After a decade I wonder why you haven't thought that (the other)
 DD> Bob has misreported what happened. A high percentage of these

that, too, is possible... my main reason for even participating in this thread
was to educate those that didn't know that stuff like this could be done in
user/group/domain policies...
