Hi @gafouri,

How did you notice that your IP is being blacklisted?

Additionally, if it’s being blacklisted on the know blacklists, if I’m not mistaken, you can request a de-list from them. Most of them will de-list the IP right away, there could be a couple that have some requirements but that should be fine since it’s a new droplet that you have created.

Hello there,

Have you tried sending any emails from the droplet or you’ve checked an online RBL database? Sharing more details on this matter will be useful.

I can recommend using a third-party mail provider like Sendgird if you’re planning to run a newsletter.
