Darn, how do I fix the summary for this issue?

I need some more information to understand this report. Ideally, a sample Java 
file and an XML report generated 
by FindBugs.

Alternatively, just give me the specific file and line number within Glassfish 
where you are getting this false 
positive.

This occurs in com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport, in method mailFrom, about line 
750:
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/source/browse/glassfish/mail/src/java/com/sun/mai
l/smtp/SMTPTransport.java?view=markup
It complains about the cast to SMTPMessage, even though it's checked with 
instanceof
the line before.
