[Avodah] Maarit Ayin - Sources?

[Liron Kopinsky]

An email I received today:

---------- Forwarded message ----------

Question - any idea where the sources are for Maarit Eyin?

I'm specifically trying to figure out its limits - say, if you're doing
something halachically allowed but socially unaccepted (or just something
most people are ignorant about) would Maarit Eyin apply? Is it a question
of halacha or the way you will then be viewed by the klal, regardless of
it's actual halachic status...

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Liron
