Jefsey, it must be difficult to participate in this kind of group when English is not your main language, but I, for one, do appreciate your wise contributions, so I take them seriously. However, I must disagree with this particular suggestion (if I understand you correctly). If a phisher spams users, it is not the email app's responsibility to direct the user to whatever site the app might guess is the "correct" one. No, I think it's better for the app to warn the user in some way that this is a phishy email, and might be evil. This is similar to the advice that you should not give your Social Security Number (SSN) or credit card number to someone over the phone, unless *you* are the one dialing the phone number (using a well-known, published phone number).
