My ISP (small local firm) provides spam and virus filters

I have two problems with SeaMonkey's response to messages
from my ISP that there
are emails in my quarantine folder.
1. SeaMonkey flags all these messages as a possible scam.
The messages are in
HTML and have a link to click through to my quarantined
message and to page to
modify my preferences.
2. When I click on any of the links I receive a warning
message that the URL is
numeric.
How can I "white list" these messages and that specific URL?
Each incoming notification does have a button for "Not a
scam". But that only
deletes the warning for that specific notification, not
the next one from my ISP :<
I will give you some hints, but because (a) you use Windows,
and (b) you undoubtedly don't run your own mail server, I
can't give you step by step instructions. This info from my
notes.
The "scam" stuff is set in a header line in the message
seemingly added by SM. It's one of the X-Mozilla-Status
lines. If the message looks like a scam a bit will be set
for the message, clear the bit to make the warning go away.
In my case I simply added the flag lines in my custom perl
mail filter which works with spamassassin to preprocess
mail. How you do it is up to you, if you're a programmer and
want to play with the mail file wherever SM puts them in
Windows, go to it and share your results.
I suspect this will help with understanding more than
solution, but there it is.
Sorry. You are in error ;)
For more than a half century I've been a learn by experiment
learner. Before posting my initial message I had looked at
headers of messages that were tagged as possible scam and
those which were not. I spotted no difference. Afterwards I
did a little more experimentation to determine exactly what
SeaMonkey found objectionable.
SeaMonkey thinks the existence of a numeric URL in the body
of a message indicates a possible scam.
After reading your post, I sent myself two one line
messages. The body of one was "www.example.com". The body of
the other was "http://1.2.3.4";. [Obviously without quotation
marks]
[Note to new users following this thread - You can see the
complete headers either by using CNTRL-U while reading the
message or by a Right-click in message body and choosing
"Forward" in the menu.]
The results are below with some personally identifiable info
