My biggest laugh was quite a few years ago, now, when the DEET (as
it was in those days) "Website of the Week" was filtered because it
came from "AccessExchange" which contains a very dangerous
substring. Anyway, I guessed wrong this time, because my email was
not bounced.<br>

Regards, have a good break<br>

The rationale, "Racism", just comes from the heading on the
filter list. The filter may contain anything. The word
"Adult", in conjunction with certain other words such as
"Entertainment", "Film", "Literature" and, possibly "Club"
could trigger a filtration rule. I wouldn't be too
concerned about it - it's just a poorly designed robot,
isn't it.<br>

It will be interesting to see if this post gets bounced.<br>
