Dovecot Mail Server - Cloud Compatibility

[Michael Peddemors]

Given the reputation of the Azure IP space, be hesitant to start 
operating an email server there, UNLESS you can get MS to give you SWIP 
or 'rwhois' for your IP space.

Just an FYI..

High levels' of AUTH attacks originating from that space as well.  To 
the point we even have a reputation list just for that IP space, in case 
you want to block AUTH attacks from it.

There was a quote from an MS engineer who even placed doubt on accepting 
an email from the Azure space.. of course, the world evolves, but 
without a 'rwhois' or SWIP that shows transparency, I would not 
recommend it..
