Hello,
I want to restrict outgoing emails from one or more account from one particular department to send only to certain email address.
Let say I have 15 user ids 5 of them belong to one department. Their user ids are user1, user2,.....user5 and I want to restrict their ability to send emails only to the directors say user6, user7,..user10. Emails to all other addresses should not go. Even if the "to: contains the directors ID along with other email IDs it should go only to the directors ID and it should not send it to other ID.
Please help me solve this issue.
Thanks

Looks like you are trying to use technology to solve a social problem and that's never a good idea. I'd personally put the rules in writing and then send the rules to the affected user(s) and tell them what will happen when the break the rules.
That said, I can see no easy way to restrict mail to specific users only without a lot of filters. Even there you could possibly have mail to the directors that have Bcc: addresses to other local users. For example, a message user1 sent to user6 that has a Cc: or Bcc: to user2 is going to be very difficult to catch if received via MercuryS.
