You knew it had to happen...OK if the response was an attempt to be sarcastic, please ignore the following:
First, if you didn't want to deal with the off topic post, the subject of Dennis' post was: OT - List of dirty words ("OT" stands for Off Topic) Second, Dennis seems to be trying to come up with a list of objectionable words with which to filter his own email client, not a corporate email platform. He does not wish to recreate the wheel and type every known obscenity into his profanity filter by hand. Third, Did *you* check google.com? I did. What I didn't find was anyone posting a list of a hundred or more obscene words in a file for anyone to download. (Maybe fifty or so though... ;-) One reason for that might be that if *I* can download them that easily, maybe 8 year old Johnny can too! ;-) (The rest of this is for Dennis..) Hey Dennis, George Carlin provided the FCC with a list once...they really do have a "official" list. I will post five words, sanitized of course... #$%^ &^*( !@$# #@$% $%^& OK, enough of the fun. I am going back to work now.... P.S. - Thanks for your R&S CramSession. I used it some to help pass the exam.

It would be very interesting if posted to the proper group. This, sadly, is not such a group. > Before I corrupt my pure and uncommonly sin-free soul by spending hours > typing every foul thing I can think of, does anybody know of a webpage that > I can cut and paste something, or perhaps e-mail me off-line what you've > accumulated in the past? http://www.google.com has lots of links. Did you try there? Also, keep in mind that "diryt words" are not simply what we would consider to be foul language. Dirty words define words that your company would not want passing through your content scanner, and are even in this context, not set in stone. Example, I may not want mail with the word "resume" in the subject leaving my network, but have no objections to such mail coming in. I might object to web content with the words "sex" involved incoming and outgoing, and so on. To limit your request to vulgarity limits the scope of your effectiveness greatly. > Again, let me apologize for the OT, but hey, the sooner I get this lame task > done, the sooner I can power up my pod and contribute some relevant material > to the group. Your future plans to contribute topcial matter are not sufficient to excuse such an imposition on my napping.
