Hello,
I am testing the phishing net for the first time. I use MS 4.40.11 on a
brand new machine. Language.conf contains:
PossibleFraudStart = <font color="red"><b>MailScanner soupçonne
le lien
PossibleFraudEnd = d'être une tentative de fraude de la part
de</b></font>
Here is what I sent to test (I added some underscores to make sure my
message would not be trapped again):
<a href="http_:_//_132_._210_._0_._0/">bad tag</a><br>
Here is what I got:
<a href="http_:_//_132_._210_._0_._0/"><font color="red"><b>MailScanner
soupçonne le lien "132.210.244.102" d'être une tentative de
fraude de la part de</b></font> pas le bon</a><br>
Which makes MS' message appear as a link. The message translates to: MS
believes the link "132.210.0.0" to be a phishing fraud attempt from bad tag.
Is this normal behaviour?
