Bravo!
Accept the few words that happen to appear. I've compared TN communications
with others, and found that TN is exceptionally clean. Rude words are rare
in this forum.
I had a problem with lots of spam mails each day (like Brian, remember?). I
installed a filter program, but I got another problem. Nearly all mails were
censured. Hundreds of word that COULD hide profanity were stopped. E.g.
pot, mouthful, fire, hot, etc. I don't dare mention more, they may be
blocking TN. I still get spam, but found it easy to just mark and delete.
Windows Live Mail can easily learn what kind of mail I WANT, and all others
are dumped in a spam box. Takes just a few seconds to delete. I'm not upset
any more.
