Email Blacklisting and Throttling

If your organization experiencing delays or if you are not currently getting emails from your ESM software the following mitigations may be required:

• Remove blocks or throttling of incoming ESM email messages in your organization's email service.
• Enable whitelisting of the IP address used by ESM to send email messages

Removing Blacklist or Throttling of incoming ESM Messages

If your organization host email in-house, or use internally managed email systems (such as Microsoft Exchange or Apache), you would work with your internal IT team responsible for managing your email system to investigate any configuration or setting that may be actively blocking or throttling incoming ESM emails and remove this setting.

Additionally, the IP addresses and esmsolutions.com domain listed below should be added to the system’s whitelisting. The specific procedure will depend on the details of the internal system used by your organization.

If your organization uses a third-party, managed email service (such as Microsoft M365 or Google Mail), you may need to open a support ticket in the organization's support portal requesting that all blocks or throttling of email coming from ESM Solutions be removed and the whitelisting added.

The blocks can be identified by the ESM Solutions email domain (esmsolutions.com) and the email IP addresses:

• 149.72.32.168
• 149.72.32.175
• 149.72.54.131
• 159.183.105.100

Our teams are continuing to work to ensure that any upgrades we are making to ESM’s cloud environments do not cause these 3^rd party solutions to trigger protective mechanisms that could cause future disruption to your services.

Please contact our Customer Support team if you need some extra help for your internal team, if you have any questions or need clarification on the information presented above.

Thank you for working with us to swiftly resolve this potential issue.
