I agree. Content based filtering is never good.. You can't filter ideas.. Only your users can do that.

I've run into filters sending mail to various places.... I don't remember the words I typed they caused the bounce... but I sent the admins a message saying how a$$in1ne and f*ck'n stoopid it was to filter.

;) just kidding.. but seriously, words like that will make it through but the offensive idea is still conveyed.

If any of these words are present, bounce the email.


Bouncing emails based on words in the content is doomed to failure.
Incidents involving things like a persons last name of Handcock or Dick
Nixon or Shitake or numerous other valid uses of foul language will become
more apparent to you immediately.
