Email with obvious phishing links

SUMMARY
Some scam emails are not properly detected by KMail. See the attachment for an
example (which is an official phishing test from Tsinghua University; some
fields concerning personal information are modified).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make sure "Security → Informs if message reading is a suspected email scam"
in KMail settings is enabled
2. Open the attached email (with obvious phishing links)

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing is warned by KMail (no matter whether HTML Message is enabled or not)

EXPECTED RESULT
KMail should warn about potential phishing links (as what I have seen
previously)
