Hey,

Not sure what to think of this but if any of you use ElasticMail then make sure your security on the server is good. For some reason i have 2 IPs that have been pernamently banned on my server by my firewall. Both of these IPs belong to ElasticMail.

51.255.70.34 # lfd: (PERMBLOCK) 51.255.70.34 (FR/France/processor3.elasticemail.com) has had more than 4 temp blocks in the last 86400 secs - Mon Oct 2 02:24:03 2017
51.255.70.32 # lfd: (PERMBLOCK) 51.255.70.32 (FR/France/processor1.elasticemail.com) has had more than 4 temp blocks in the last 86400 secs - Mon Oct 2 15:09:40 2017

Now i know it has nothing to do with ElasticMail connecting to the server to notify MailWizz of the bounces/complaints as if that was the case then my firewall would have blocked aload of Amazon SES IPs. So my question is now... what has ElasticMail been trying to do on my server, my firewall only blocks IPs if they are trying to gain access/login to something. As i cant see what the temp blocks was previously due to it being a number of days ago i cant see what it is ElasticMail has been trying to do.

So heres a little warning to just be careful.
