I can immediately think of two examples ;-) The first is when a LISTSERV log was bounced because it contained the string 13:45:18 and the seconds field clearly identified the log as spam of the worst sort. Admittedly, that was several years ago. The second and very recent example is a message that got rejected because it contained the word SPECIALIST. I don't want to type it and get filtered, but cut the first three and last character and you will understand why specialist discussions must be banned ;-)
Participants in a list related to prostate cancer would have
difficulty with spam filters that stopped email containing
"SPECIALIST" :-)
