    Account to receive email but not send

    You might try this and tell us which one has worked: 1. Give 'read only' permission in Mailbox rights 2. Under delivery options, give 0 for 'reciepients limits' 3. Under Delivery restrictions, give 0 in 'sending message size' The above three options are to not send out emails but read/receive.
