Come on guys! You join a security list that will no doubt talk about blocking P_0_R_N.stuff. Then you block messages containing this topic! Whitelist the list! I respond to a post only to receive a ton of bounced messages in my inbox because my reply contains a discussion on blocking this stuff. ARGH! This is a sure fire way for your posts to end up in the bit bucket of other subscribers.
Incredibly, not everyone that subscribes to the list has control over what gets blocked at their mail servers.
