MALWARE PHISH/A

Hi.  Could someone advise me where I should go to ask for advice about this.  I have a macbook pro.  When I use the "mail" app sophos anti virus tells me it has detected a malware phish/a.  I worked out how to see which file it is and this is what it says when I open the file:

"verified by visa" <sicurezza@visaitalia.com> gentile cliente.  I don't know if this is a real threat, or what I should do about it, and don't know where to start asking questions!  (I'm not very IT savvy either! )  Thanks,

  • I encounter a similar probelm where Sophos identifies several threats (MAL/PHISH-A) and seems for the moment to be unable to deal with. I deleted some of my email (junk,spam), some of the threats were gone and then they are back.. As I am not an IT person it seems difficult to identify where the corrupted files might be. The path shows as

    /Users/(My username)/Library/Mail/IMAP-emailadress..pmbox/Attachments/303326/2/fulldetails.htm

    Not sure whether I turn blind but do not know what else to do. Any help?

    thanks,
