To accomplish this you need to ensure that your users cannot access external SMTP servers otherwise they could sent out unlogged messages. We have done this in the past for a few companies. This forces the user to use the sendmail server for their email. I think this is the goal of the requester.
Which is exactly what my first sentence said: "I will assume that LAN
users are allowed to connect to mail server only, and not to outside
world". BTW, this is something that should be done by default.
Financial firm or not.
