auto filtering of messages

From a number of messages with asterisks in place of letters that there is some kind of automatic filtering happening. If this is for product names or whatever, I suggest that it applies to whole words only. 's' 'o' 'l' is a very common example. Many words have those three consecutive letters and should be left alone. If the filtering software was aware of word boundaries, then one could filter for a 3-letter word of those three letters above (this is just an example, but a major nuisance one).
