Trying to block iCloud Web mail, etc. icloud.com/mail without much luck

Trying to block icloud.com/mail It's blocked if I go to http://icloud.com/mail, but https://icloud.com/mail is allowed. I tried to block URL https://icloud.com/mail, but no go. Would the firewall have to be configured for SSL decryption to block this portion of icloud?

Hi,
When performing URL filtering the system matches HTTPS traffic based on the subject common name in the public key certificate, in this instance "icloud.com". So you'd have to define the URL value as "icloud.com" in order for it to be blocked.

Understood, but I'm certain it will block all of icloud.com and not just icloud.com/mail Basically just trying to block webmail in icloud per a request without taking down all access to icloud.
