Julian,

Running 4.36.1 with version 1.126.2.172 of Message.pm.  I got a
complaint about this:

> If you are having problems, please email myself (Ronald.Aho at jenzabar.net
> <<mailto:Ronald.Aho at jenzabar.net>MailScanner has detected a possible fraud
> attempt from "ronald.aho at jenzabar.net" claiming to
> be<mailto:Ronald.Aho at jenzabar.net> mailto:Ronald.Aho at jenzabar.net>) and Shirley
> High (shirley.high at jenzabar.net <<mailto:shirley.high at jenzabar.net>MailScanner
> has detected a possible fraud attempt from "shirley.high at jenzabar.net" claiming
> to be<mailto:shirley.high at jenzabar.net> mailto:shirley.high at jenzabar.net>)
> directly and we will forward it to the appropriate people. We will respond

I thought that later versions of anti-phishing were supposed to ignore
mailto URLs?
