Russia blocks mailbox.org again
Hello Team,
I'm not quite sure whether you are aware or not, but Russian authorities put mailbox.org IPs and hostnames in the country-wide block list (22-Sep-2020).
Here are some details for your reference:
1. Official web-site with the case description (Ru only) - enter mailbox.org + fill captcha to get case details.
2. Unofficial web-site with aggregated data about blocked IPs and hostnames.
Can you please clarify a couple of questions?
1. Is mailbox.org going to fight back and get its IPs/Hostnames unblocked? If yes, what is the plan and how to get status updates?
2. While it is blocked, is it still technically possible for users with Russian email providers to send emails to mailbox.org users and vice versa? I'm not an expert, but for instance will DMARC checks properly work if hostnames are not properly resolved and IPs blocks? May be there are other technical implications...
Thank you for your answers and help.
Kind Regards,
Thank you very much for your feedback and the background information.
We're still in the process of evaluation and legal consultation.
At this point we - regretfully - cannot share any outlook on this.

I have raised a ticket about this issue several days ago, but alas. The only response I got was that they were able to connect using Russian Tor exit node just fine. :)
At the moment I have no issues sending and receiving email to/from other users with Russian IPs. IMAP works, and that's the most important part. However, I'm unable to access webmail and the front page. Not that big a deal, personally I rarely need them and there's Tor for that.
However, I wish this issue could be resolved. I understand that there's not much MB as a business can do. But as long as IMAP works I'm not leaving. :)

Hello!
For a month now I've been facing serious problems with receiving emails from some sites - it just doesn't work. I suppose this is due to the blocking of mailbox.org MX servers in Russia. Below is just a small list of sites, among which airlines and banks, that is, some of the most vital:
aeroflot.ru
rzd.ru
rzd-bonus.ru
tinkoff.ru
alfabank.ru
gosuslugi.ru
Since the service has not been performing its main function for two months and is not even trying to fix the problem (elementary, at least by changing the IP-address of MX-servers), please indicate a further plan to fix the situation and compensate for downtime to users.
