After fighting nation wide spam issue, finally I step into this forum. The story is that.
Last a few months ago, I tried to register this forum. I got a welcome mail and wait for approved mail. I waited for a week. I tried again with different mail. But, second mail never been arrived. What??

![WTF? :wtf:](https://www.eevblog.com/forum/Smileys/default/wtf2.gif.pagespeed.ce.pxLiY5pjs4.gif)
After some research, I found out the problem.
I am from Myanmar and I notice that some of my ISP proxy address are in spammer lists such as botscout.com,
www.stopforumspam.com, projecthoneypot.org. So, spammer filter from this forum block these IP.
But please notice that all users at Myanmar are behind those proxies and firewall. These IP addresses are belong to my ISP Yatanarpon Teleport.
If you block these IP range, no one from Myanmar cannot register to forum because there is only One public ISP in Myanmar(Yes, if you believe it or not

).

( I also faced this problem in other forums (HackADay, sparkfun, adafruit etc). Some are solved and some cannot. I also requested these spam filter sites for white list, not improved)
