Cox also filters your e-mail on their SMTP server such that if it contains both words "root" and "password" it will get silently dropped. This is why I'm using an alternate port to bypass their SMTP server (or you wouldn't get this e-mail).
I find it hard to believe that Cox has secretly implemented a policy of dropping all outgoing mail that contains the phrase "root password." In fact, I just sent this e-mail to the NANOG mailing list via the Cox SMTP server smtp.west.cox.net, so if they have implemented such a policy, they haven't implemented it on all of their servers. -Richard
