Downside of email filtering
The downside to email filtering software: legitimate emails often get filtered out because they include verboten keywords. "Some 1,000 different e-mail sites recently bounced 2,500 copies of one TidBITS [e-newsletter] issue because it included a reference to Viagra, Engst said. Other words that have triggered rejections of TidBITS issues include cherry, keystroke, blonde, Napster and undress. In other cases, combinations of words and graphics have caused the newsletter to be mislabeled a virus."
