blocked is added to suspected phishing urls. what folder is the message in?
Is every message affected or just some?

If you select the URL and click Ctrl+C, does it copy? BTW - the grey box is
not clickable or usable in any manner - its just to show you the path the
link points to, in case its different than the one that is in the message.
