There's no way for the admin to disable the loading/autoloading of
rmail other than editing non-conffiles, because rmail is part of GNU
emacs itself. 

I think that whether an Emacs Lisp program is distributed as part of
GNU Emacs or not should not matter for how the user uses it (provided
they have installed the right Debian packages).
