How easy would it to make that read some thing like
<http://200.153.201.119:16780/>MailScanner has detected a possible fraud
attempt from http://200.153.201.119:16780/<http://200.153.201.119:16780/>
claiming to be http://www.abbey.com

Just thought it might clarify what it is and what it says it is.
