Dear list,
  I have a trouble with the phishing detection as stated below:

<td class="trouble"><a 
href="http://www.informit.com/click.ashx?dk=3928&u=3FD68173-50E2-49D5-B1BB-F837D0F828F3&r=%2fnewsletters%2fwhatsnew.asp%3fni%3d101%26st%3d45774"></b></font><font 
color="red"><b>MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "www.informit.com" claiming to be</b></font> <font 
color="red"><b>MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "www.informit.com" claiming to be Having trouble 
viewing the e-mail below?<br />http://www.informit.com/newsletters/whatsnew.asp?ni=101&st=45774</a></td>

I understand why the link is a phishing link, but why the MailScanner fraud message is repeated twice ?
Regular expression bug ?

I'm using MailScanner 4.44.6 with SA 3.0.4 on Solaris 9/perl 5.8.0.

Thanks.
