Is there a way we can please for the love of god summit exceptions? We need a corporate vpn and we don’t need every friggen website blocking us.

Without this you were also probably inadvertently contributing to the de-democratization of email. I used to run my own email off a cloud server, but that time has passed.

I have added the feature for a user to add known addresses so they do not get flagged as bots. Take a look at the API docs here: https://ipdetective.io/api

Currently the known address is scoped to the user/client who is using the service.

Sounds like a great idea and an even better feature. Would that exception only work for you? Or would it also work for other users of IPDetective?

I think allowing users to register exhorting to your list as ‘known ips’ to have them stay off the list would be useful for all parties involved. If there was abuse behavior, if could go to a graylist while the matter is handled.
