It's even easier to just hit the "delete" key. Thus, the cluefree will
either become "clueful" or stay on the list. No time involved on my end.

I'm well aware, thanks. Actually, I think filters like this should be
disabled for lists where such words are expected to be used. I'll live
with having my message hit the filter and requiring the list-owner to
approve it manually. It's not that my message is like news or anything
requiring immediate approval. ;-)
