Bug ID: 326072
Summary: Scam detector misidentifies FQDN as numerical IP
Classification: Unclassified
Product: kmail2
Version: 4.11.2
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
The scam detector wrongly identifies Bruce Schneir's CRYPTO-GRAM newsletter for
October 15, 2013 as a scam. The "details" dialog says
This email contains a link which points to a numerical IP address
(baseball2.2ndhalfplays.com) instead of a typical textual website address. This
is often the case in scam emails.
That is not a numerical IP.
The link _is_ part of an example of a purported NSA malware site, but I don't
think that's what KMail is trying to warn be about...
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Subscribe to CRYPTO-GRAM at http://www.schneier.com/crypto-gram.html.
2. Get it to send you the Oct 15, 2013 issue.
3. Open the issue.
Actual Results:
The scam warning appears on the message.
Expected Results:
No scam warning should appear, or no warning about the above link should
appear.
