Is that true?  It strikes me as a poor assumption.  If it _is_ the case, I
guess I wouldn't want to run a list on the subject of Set Theory using a
LISTSERV then.

With all due respect, I think what you want is a moderated list.  This kind
of exception-based processing is a horror to implement, and is terrifically
subject to going awry in practice.  Those "well-known-four-letter words"
are only well-known in English, not in Swedish or Croatian.  What if your
"well-known-four-letter word" is the second word of the message?  An so
forth.
