Started logging access denied messages in log today for QWK call outs to Vert.

I have manually tested both QWK accounts I have on vert, and non-qwk and can login to all of them.

I have not knowningly changed anything with QWK config on my end. So at a lot of what's going on.

Until I get qwk working I can be reached by netmail or internet mail.

Your hostname or IP address likely got blocked. What IP address are you connecting from?

The last successful login for amessyroom (not a QWKnet account) was from 149.154.44.15, which is *not* blocked here.

Password hasn't been changed and checked it , and still looks good.

Wonder what caused it to hiccup and trigger failures...

Thanks for clearing it. QWK packets came through.

I've confirmed the password by logging into VERT. Changed method to login.

Is it still failing ? Does user need a domain or anything ?
