I can't actually say as he didn't respond to my blacklist query. But the domain 
that I was polling did match the domain listed in the nodelist and did resolve 
to the correct IP. The connection could be established but would be dropped due 
to a authentication failure. His logs showed that he was using my correct 
domain name also. Based on what he stated this was just "The last straw". He 
didn't elaborate on what other issues that he had been having.

I have a spare Raspberry Pi3 B that I might install Mystic on just to do some 
testing.

The passwords used were comprised of eight alpha numerical characters  with all 
caps.
