Hi All, our company policy not allow using any others emails. How can I block
through content filtering or any TCP/UDP ports?

Sounds like what you need to "block" is the download of WLM, or disable it
on pre-installed systems. It is just a mail handler. The accounts
configured to receive or send mail are set up in it through the "Tools -
Accounts", but they are typical user email accounts from their ISPs, Yahoo,
Gmail, etc. So if you are blocking those access ports, you'll block the use
of those accounts in WLM.

Since Windows Live Mail uses standard mail ports just like any other
mail client, you can't block its ports without blocking your approved
email app.
