This may be unrelated and a coincidence, but:

France has a strong and growing body of anti-terrorist legislation, and I believe that some of it prevents providers from discussing some law enforcement notices (I believe that the same also exists in the US, hence some companies disclosing that they have NOT received any such requests. So when they stop saying that, you know what's up).

As other commentators have stated, OVH have datacenters in multiple jurisdictions. For example the US and European services are distinct entities and while product offerings are similar there are some specific differences. Also worth noting that while they use support teams across continents, the teams rarely have much context of what's happening in the other continents (has been as issue in the past for my teams).

It is unclear which entity was providing the service to Guerrilla Mail.
