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.
