PHBs generally don't have a clue, so unless you *tell* them you are
redlisting them because they're an idiot, how would they even know?

Real world example:

My main client still hasn't let me roll out ASSP (they've been using
webroots SaaS, and before that mxlogic for a long time and is
comfortable with the current setup) and the owner of the company has the
really, extremely bad habit of actually replying to 419 scammers (and
other spammers) to tell them what he thinks of them when something slips
through. Most of the Sales Reps there are clueless as well, and always
end up signing up for all kinds of garbage when they register at some
site for some stupid newsletter, then complaining loudly about all of
the 'spam' they are getting.

If/when they let me roll out ASSP there, I certainly won't be letting
most of those users - including the boss - contribute to the HAM corpus,
or even to the whitelist (via outbound mail).
