Email Access Scheduling

An interesting question came down to me today from the upper regime and I was wondering if anyone had heard of a way to do this. I was asked if there was a way to restrict email access based on time. Basically they are wanting email access cut off to certain users after a certain point at night. I would assume this is mostly geared towards OWA. Why they would want to do this I don't know.

I can think of one way to do it via firewall policies and scheduling (static IP addresses and policy schedules but requires everyone have a static from home to work) but is very ugly. I was wondering if anyone else had been asked something like this or had a better way of doing it?

Hmmm, that's not a bad thought. We use that currently for our tellers and most other workers. I'll have to test that out.

Something else I'm thinking is a powershell script tied to the task scheduler.

set-casmailbox -identity user@mydomain.org -owaenabled $true/false (turn on or off).
