Use the Disable-OutlookProtectionRule cmdlet to disable an existing Microsoft Outlook protection rule.
Syntax

<RuleIdParameter> [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]]
[-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-WhatIf
[<SwitchParameter>]]

Detailed Description
Outlook protection rules are administrator-created rules applied before a user sends a message using Outlook. Outlook protection rules are used to automatically rights-protect e-mail messages using a Rights Management Services (RMS) template before the message is sent. However, Outlook protection rules don't inspect message content. To rights-protect messages based on message content, use transport protection rules.
For more information, see Understanding Outlook Protection Rules.

Although all parameters for this cmdlet are listed in this topic, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you.
