Wetbag60 postings on headsup list, show as phishing

sharpo Wed 29 Sep 2010 - 12:15

Over the past week or so, the majority of postings from wetbag60 end up in my spam ban with a "phishing" warning. Is it just me that has this problem?

I have marked the address as from a "safe sender", but still the same happens.

Crumbs mate not sure why let me investigate

No other replies so perhaps only me with the problem?????

It seems to think the times, such as 08:10, are a hyper link and show up in blue and are underlined. If I move the mouse pointer over the time, bottom left of the screen shows "x-apple-data-detectors".

Delving further into the message source of the e-mail there are hundreds of lines like this:-

Another e-mail had the following line:-

92001 WTAE FRETHNTNL 0045014627 4 * DOLLANDSM N

and 0045014627 was underlined as a link, and if the mouse pointer was over it, at the bottom left of the e-mail was:-
tel:0045014627 - so does it think it is a telephone number?????

Are all your e-mails via a mobile or a pc, or a mixture of both? Can't understand why some are OK but others cause problems!!

Just done a few searches & found the following:-

http://www.tipstrs.com/tip/6166/Disable-data-detectors-in-Mac-Mail

"In Leopard, the Mac Mail application has data detectors that detect certain types of data like dates, times, and addresses and turns them into clickable pieces of information so that you can add them into iCal, the Address Book, or other applications. If you use these, great. If not, the data detectors are just a little annoying.

If you are not using them, you can turn them off. Just open a terminal window and enter the following command:

defaults write com.apple.mail DisableDataDetectors YES

Once this command is entered, quit Mail and restart it. The data detectors will now be gone. I fyou change your mind and want them back, repeat the command but replace the YES with NO. "
