Apparently that's not a good strategy: their 509952 IPs are blocked by uceprotect, too; 217 of these IPs (again 0.05%) sent spam in the last seven days. And indeed what you suggest is not a solution for the WordPress site of a honest customer that get hacked, for instance.

You keep bringing up wordpress, a web application.


It's just an example, because it's a common web application with (too many) security vulnerabilities.


There is nothing being listed by uceprotect that would prohibit a honest (or even dishonest) customer from running a wordpress site. Sending email from a wordpress site is much easier to do through a MX provider than to self host, so why are you even advocating for self hosted wordpress sites to host their own email?


I'm not advocating anything, and that's again orthogonal to the point at hand. The point is that when a website gets hacked and starts to send spam, all other IPs of the server provider get flagged.
