Management knows I run scanmail with emanager and have the filter to catch
profanity among other things.  When a message meets the criteria it is
archived and I look at the messages only then.  I have already made the
decision to make no exceptions and expect everyone to follow the AUP.

>From my point of view:
If no one has asked you to monitor content and provided a written order, what
are you doing browsing someone else' mail? Its bad form, and can get you
fired. If you have been told to monitor then just enforce what is normally
enforced. Don't ask the end user. They will talk you into an exception, and
that one exception will become a chink in your armour that will be used and
abused by everyone.

I wasn't going to to register my opinion on this one, but I must tell you,
taking advice from Hummert is a bad idea. Whatever you do, don't do it
because Hummert says so. I (shudder) have seen the places Hummert considers
normal and it makes me want to scrub off the top 2 layers of my skin.
Sincerly,

Rachel

Via Scanmail I find that a user is subscribed (or appears to be) to the
f^ckedcompany.com newsletter.  Besides the domain name there is other
profanity in the newsletter.  So do I follow company policy or let it slide?
My gut reaction is to ask the person if they are subscribed and then politely
ask them to unsubscribe and not have this kind of thing sent to a work
address.
