Hi @gualter,

Thanks for getting back to me so swiftly. Unfortunately I don’t have any more information than what our company’s IT services have provided me with.
To quote from their response to the Ticket:

In this specific case, we already can tell you the issue. It is a link in your mail signature (www . adina - wagner . com). Your website is hosted on a server with a blocked IP address: https://check.spamhaus.org/listed/?searchterm=35.198.80.163
This is why the mails get blocked, if you write someone or someone answers you with this link in the mail body it gets rejected. Also, we can’t do anything about it. The IP addess needs to be removed from the blocked list from spamhaus.org in order to unblock the link.

Likewise, the spamhaus.org link does not provide me with much actionable information. They say:

This IP address has been observed to be involved in at least one of the following activities; sending spam, snowshoe spamming,hijacked IP space, or associated with bulletproof hosting.
As a result, this IP address is listed in the Spamhaus Blocklist (SBL)

The details contain the following information:

I am out of my depth on this topic, and could only guestimate what might wrong, so I’ll refrain from stating unhelpful hypotheses. I did find the following post on the forum though, which looks like it could be a related issue: The website is blocked by Malwarebytes on some ip-adresses

If there is nothing about the blocked IP that can be done on your end, is there a possibility to have my website hosted on a different server?

Thanks
