Allow Google Apps Email

Hi, I need to block access to webmail (Hotmail, yahoo, etc) and I'm planning to use the Content Filter to block Webmail category. The problem is we are using Google Apps for our email (through pop3/smtp and imap in Outlook) and I think the Content Filter is going to kill the access to Google Apps (Google Apps use pop.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com). Is there any way I can block webmail (including GMail) but leave Google Apps open?

Thank you,
Ernesto Felixovich

Create a URL Filter exception for google after blocking the webmail category.

Yes, as suggested by Scott, try to deny the webmail category and add this URL to the allowed sites:

^https?://[A-Za-z0-9.-]*google.com/a//
