You can, and it's not related to firewalls one way or another (and
firewalls really aren't related to application security, even if it was
somehow tied in. About all you could do would be block outbound port 25,
but Outlook uses ExMAPI via RPC, and blocking the RPC ports would have a
lot more nasty side-effects).
