I wasn't sure so I've justed tested it - it filters incoming mail. If
it picks swear words up it quarantines the email and notifies the
sender. I don't know how to get into the filtering system - the
service is provided externally and I've never had the need to go into
it, unlike the web filtering system which I often have to add or
remove things from both block and allow lists.

I'd have thought only a very tiny number. Maybe the kind of people who
are also stupid enough to watch something like Quiz Call, and end up
spending ?200 that they can't afford on premium-rate phone calls.
Because they don't realise it's all an obvious con designed to get
dimwitted people to spend all their money on premium-rate phone calls.
