That's hilarious!!!Imagine if they had NOT delivered your email and what you sent was a quote of someone else and was critical to the message? This is like 'censor the pink bits' all over again under Senator Dick. SVHA should have a chat with their supplier. Australia isn't the USA Bible belt. I think most people even there would be astonished at this language censorship. You know, the land of free speech, y'all. ;-)
Jan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roger Clarke" To:"link" Cc: Sent:Fri, 19 Jun 2020 21:34:27 +1000 Subject:[LINK] RFI: messagelabs.com This one stopped me in my tracks - which takes some doing given the time I've spent in this parish. Below is the "alert notification" I received, then the context that gave rise to it, and then the message incl. headers. Have we really reached the point that we have to use GPG to avoid having our messages intercepted by puritanical bots? Can anyone throw any light on the (Bible Belt, USA?) corporation that provides the service that delivered this inanity? -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Possible Profanity Detected Date: 19 Jun 2020 10:40:17 -0000 From: [email protected] To: [email protected] The following word(s) in your email with subject "Re: A Bird With No Name!!! or When is a chough not a chough?" have been detected as possible profanity; bastard [ The puncterroneous ';' instead of ':' is in the original.] This may be our email filtering system misinterpreting some words within your email, however, please review the content of your email to ensure it complies with the SVHA Acceptable Use Policy, available on the Intranet.

(The even broader context was a somewhat Montypythonesque conversation about white-winged choughs in the burnt-out area NW of Mittagong. But I digress). ___________________________________ From - Fri Jun 19 20:44:39 2020 X-Account-Key: account3 X-UIDL: UID73705-1534144771 X-Mozilla-Status: 0001 X-Mozilla-Status2: 00000000 X-Mozilla-Keys: Return-Path: Delivered-To: [email protected] Received: from s221.syd2.hostingplatform.net.au by s221.syd2.hostingplatform.net.au with LMTP id 4CAsAD+W7F6msAYAnwW8sQ (envelope-from ) for ; Fri, 19 Jun 2020 20:41:03 +1000 Return-path: Envelope-to: [email protected] Delivery-date: Fri, 19 Jun 2020 20:41:03 +1000 Received: from mail2.bemta24.messagelabs.com ([67.219.250.13]:24712) by s221.syd2.hostingplatform.net.au with esmtp (Exim 4.93) (envelope-from ) id 1jmESC-001qaK-Fd for [email protected]; Fri, 19 Jun 2020 20:41:02 +1000 Received: from [100.112.128.109] (using TLSv1.2 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (256 bits)) by server-5.bemta.az-a.us-west-2.aws.symcld.net id FE/15-28811-2169CEE5; Fri, 19 Jun 2020 10:40:18 +0000 X-Env-Sender: [email protected] X-StarScan-Received: X-StarScan-Version: 9.50.2; banners=-,-,- X-VirusChecked: Checked Received: (qmail 30471 invoked by uid 1004); 19 Jun 2020 10:40:17 -0000 Date: 19 Jun 2020 10:40:17 -0000 Message-ID: To: [email protected] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Mailer: StarScan From: [email protected] Subject: Possible Profanity Detected X-Spam-Status: No, score=1.8 X-Spam-Score: 18 X-Spam-Bar: + X-Ham-Report: Spam detection software, running on the system "s221.syd2.hostingplatform.net.au", has NOT identified this incoming email as spam.
