How do you work with the service providers you use to host your platform and send out emails (e.g. Heroku / Mailgun) to let them know you are not a malicious phishing company, but an anti-phishing company?

I say this because I ended up reporting the phishing email I received from you guys to Mailgun, and I believe accidentally got your account disabled. Sorry about that.

YES you did!

I called them just right after that, and I have to say they've been great so far. We agreed I would pay for a dedicated IP, and they now fully support Riot. And having a dedicated IP is actually better, because you can now remove the unexpected warning on Gmail.

Your dedicated IP is going to get flagged as more and more users report it. I run phishing as part of red team exercises and have a constant need for new fresh IPs.

This is amazing. As long as none of your "unsuspecting" "victims" notice you have a dedicated IP lol

If you reported their email you probably passed the test anyways
