Since you use a preinstalled version (which is outdated by the way), and noone knows how it has been modified, you should seek support at the provider

i guess you use cloudfanatic ? then their support team is responsible for your problems

Re: IP gets blocked after few times of login attempts

thank you, i ended up reinstalling iredmail on a fresh server with fresh copy of iredmail. it seems my problem is not repeating, however now that i have standard iredmail downloaded from official site and installed on debian 11, how to see the Fail2ban configuration? when setting up i chose to use iredmail standard firewall rules.

thank you for taking time to respond to my topic
