Hence forth, please consider any form of language the speaker chooses to use to be "professional", so long as it is comprehensible, relevant tot the topic at hand, and free of personal attacks.

If someone came in here and started discussing necrophilia with underage goats, my main objection would be that it is off-topic :) > I did >not mean to get off track I just wanted to send an email to the person who >send the unprofessional email with bad language. > There was NOTHING unprofessional about that post. Unprofessional was injecting your religous prejudices into a technical discussion, and posting the private e-mail I sent you to a public list. >I was surprised to see so many GOD hating people who became hateful and >irate at the mention of His name.

ObSecurity: I expect to get several bounce messages from this post due to assorted corporate content filtering systems. I view such systems primarily as a vulnerability, because they can easily filter out important technical data. Consider what would happen if your subscription to bugtraq was filtered to remove a critical announcement of a vulnerability that affects you, merely because the immature children who wrote the post included a comment in the source code that said "fuckers! we 0wn j00".
