How pathetic, eh? My mum's e-mail server used to be the same, although it has now been relaxed. Lots of my e-mails I sent to her from college wouldn't get through, for no good reason. There weren't any swears in it, so I can only deduce the same thing happened.
Reply:The use of capital letters in that case, changed it from a city name to the crass sexual reference . . . and . .
Although that language may be used every day in europe, in the USA women consider it the equivalent of the "n" word for black americans. Men here can loose their jobs for that language and many women would decapitate the man using it, were it not for police repercussions.
