That's not necessarily unreasonable, depending on which provider that is.
Sites like Wikipedia also block entire ranges to prevent spam. Unfortunately sometimes people do get caught up in that (as I did last year).
- panki27 3y agoEven if you get them to create an exception for your IP, personal experience shows that this lasts for 2 months tops, then you're blocked again. I gave up, getting my personal mail server to communicate with Outlook is not worth it.
- smcl 3y agoDidn’t the Wikipedia one just block anonymous contributions from some ip range? As in, you could still sign up, login and contribute?
- arp242 3y agoNo; was blocked even when logged in. Had to create a ticket to unblock (IP range had been re-assigned, which is why I got blocked after I moved).
