Which was my point. I never indicate to my customers that I will try to
protect their email from anything except some Spam. Although in this case,
the recipient I sent to was also a large Intranet, which may be why they
quickly put "joke" in a filter. If it were an ISP, I think trying to filter
based on anything except open relays or known Spam reply addresses, (e.g.
friend@xxxxxxxxxx), is a bit over the top.
