I haven't gotten any email for completed puzzles since December 29th.
I changed the IP address of the server then, because a group of IPs it was in is on the "SpamHaus blocklist"
Some more info from
this post:

Because the parent company ("Colocrossing") of my server provider ("ChicagoVPS") apparently hosts a lot of spam servers/networks,
the IP address of calcudoku.org was on a "block list" that is used all over the place (the "Spamhaus SBL")(the IP just happened to
be too similar to that of the spamming servers).
My IP was changed to one that is not on this list (which explains why the server was unreachable for 20 minutes or so this afternoon CET)
(some people/internet providers do lazy caching of these addresses, for them unfortunately the outage was/is longer).
The new IP apparently is on a Verizon blocklist (!). I requested for it to be removed, with full info, but all I got from Verizon
was that it was still blocked :-| From what I understand, they're a monopoly, so they couldn't care less anyway (?)
Your internet provider ("Cox High Speed Internet") is also blocking the IP, because it's on the "Cloudmark CSI DNSBL" (another blocklist).
I'll put in a request to remove it..
