Understatement of the week.  The mail includes absolutely no evidence
about what message is allegedly being filtered.  Are you sure that
this is really a filtering engine at all, and not just random spam
hoping to draw responses from careless people?  I've heard of web
comment-spammers who try to get other people to decode captchas
for them this way.

Adding to my suspicion is that I don't recall having seen one of these
personally, and if it were really tied to posting on any of the PG
lists, I shoulda seen a lot ;-)
        regards, tom lane
