Is there anyway in Exchange 2010 or on the client end to stop emails being delivered to an account out of working hours, or set hours.

E.g An individual in the organisation doesn't want to reveive emails between 8pm and 8am the following day and would like them to be held on the server and delivered at 8am, can this be done?

 

Hi,
I don't know of any way to do that.

Why not tell the user to use "Work Offline", during the time he/she doesn't want to send/receive any messages?

The person in question just wants it set that after 8pm until 8am the next day she receives no emails through on any device, whether it be phone, laptop, webmail etc

The person will have lett work by 5pm but is happy to receive emails until 8pm but then wants the system to stop sending them emails.

The only way I can think of doing it is to change the permitted logon hours in AD which in theory should also stop the emails.

That will not stop Exchange from delivering messages to the user.
I really don't think that this can be done in the server side.

Any chance you received a different answer to this question since posting in May? I am currently trying to find the answer to the same question.

Thanks in advance!
