Hi, According to the definition of 'out of pocket' in your link, the sentence means 'she won't be checking her email, she won't be available via email'. [ Nor would I be, on my honeymoon! ] But personally I've never heard 'out of pocket' used like this to mean 'not checking one's electronic devices'.
