Puremessage Offensive Language Block Exceptions?

We work in a school and have offensive language turned on. the word        cu**ng       with the     mi     replacing the stars gets blocked. Great. Apart from we have a supplier called      dave cu**ng associates    so how do we block the original word but let through things to the associates in? or with their name in the message?

I've tried having a go with regular expressions but I just can't see a way to exclude a word if it's surrounded by other good words making the phrase ok even if the word is wrong. I have to say the documentation on this part of the product is wofully inadequate. Is it possible? If not can we have it? Is there a different way to do it?

  • It is worthwhile learning about Regular Expressions.  To test your expressions in a safe environment, try TextPad, whose search uses RegEx.

    I made the following to catch Russian website links:    http:\/\/[^ ]*\.ru\/

    and this to catch V**gra and variant misspellings:  [Vv][iIaAgGrRoO]{5}          (there's a space on the end you can't see here)

    Hope this helps.
