I can't second this strongly enough!  I had a very *IRATE* user 
complaining about not receiving email from his boss.  Turns out he had 
created a rule in his mail client to block a certain four letter word and 
forgot about it.  The problem started when he added his title "Programmer 
Analyst" to his signature block and he stopped getting replies to his 
messages.
