Now I don't feel so bad. At least I got my messages bounced for saying S#!T
and FU(Ked. Lets see how good their word list is....
I'm offended by automatic sensorship that can't decide if a context is
offensive.  :-) Harry (do they allow smiley faces???)

Last week I posted the specs for 19" r**cks to add to a thread concerning
custom chassis design. One of the systems it was posted to rejected it
because "This mail message contains banned or potentially offensive text."
I guess their filter was set to reject r*cks (as in b at ndage? so nobody
there hears about coat-r at cks either) The requested destination was:
95hower at stbenets.rmplc.co.uk Somebody should let them know since this
message probably won't get there cause it has the word 'r at cks' also. Where
is the world going to anyway.
