All my junk mail comes from the Trump campaign. It's actually amazing - seven or eight pieces a day and maybe one of them clears the filter. They are the only political emailer I get that can't seem to beat the spam filter.

On a more serious note, 3CX has some... aggressive DDOS/Phishing countermeasures. You log in wrong three times and it will blacklist your IP for 24 hours. Which means if the student midwife puts the wrong password into her phone she takes the whole goddamn office down. Don't like that? whitelist your IP. Dynamic IP? Stop being a loser.

Anyway. It sends me helpful emails whenever it decides to blacklist IPs. They used to be largely in Slovenia but lately they're all Contabo IPs.
