replaces words in messages<\/a>.<\/p>\nThis goes beyond what other web-based mail systems do, which modify or delete actual Java tags. This affects the actual words of messages.<\/p>\n
So, for example, mentioning that yummy mocha <\/i>you had on the way in to work will be received on the other end as a yummy espresso<\/i>. Talk about the funny expression <\/i>on your boss’ face, and it becomes the funny statement<\/i>. Mention that you’re doing a thorough evaluation <\/i>of something, and the result will be a thorough reviewuation<\/i>.<\/p>\n
Not that Yahoo lets anyone know this is happening, or will comment on what else it changes. That’s a security secret which, of course, trumps all other considerations.<\/p>\n
