Puremessage Offensive Language Block Exceptions?

bj42

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?

    So I guess you are saying that it's impossible. I don't see this request as something particularly out of the ordinary as context is vital when discussing if something is "offensive" or not. The inability to make an exeception for specific groups of words in pure message, i'm sure it would be something documented somewhere instead of "look through the inpenetrable manual on another site". So the real solution is don't be unlucky enough to be born with / use a name that could be misinterpreted as offensive.

    Thanks for letting me know, one afternoon was enough banging my head against this particular brick wall.
