Webfilter a little tight?

[RtX]

Arthur,

I could be wrong but it seems like you have 2 email addresses listed in the
KCLUG group. One for Gmail and one for your office? If someone writes a post
and puts a dirty word in the message body, the copy going through the email
box at Westrope gets filtered and any message with questionable material
gets redirected to the equivalent of /dev/null. You get the Gmail message
fine, but I don't think your getting the messages at Westrope. I am assuming
you work at Westrope. Just a guess but seems reasonable.
