Anyone else received emails from DartNode about IP Address Blacklisted?

Hello,
I have a DartNode VPS (VPS-3) for a year now, I can't remember if I personally requested or it comes with SMTP port opened. I've never used it for email, just proxmox under a tailscale network. Today I received the following email:
Your IP address 166.88.xxx.xxx has been detected on the following DNS blacklists:
zen.spamhaus.org
SMTP (outbound email on port 25) has been automatically disabled for this IP until the blacklist entries are resolved.
To resolve this, please visit each blacklist provider's website to request delisting, then contact our support team to re-enable SMTP access.
Following another:
SMTP (outbound email on port 25) has been disabled on your account.
Reason: Automatically blocked due to IP blacklisting on multiple DNSBLs.
If you need SMTP access restored, please contact our support team with details about your use case.
This has zero affect on me as I don't use it for SMTP or email related hosting. Just wondering if it's just my IP or it's the whole block.

i have a crazy idea: what if you would contact your hosting provider dartnode?
Their ticket response takes like 7 business days for each reply. Since this doesn't affect me in any ways, I'm simply not bothered waiting weeks.
maybe not 7 but do need to wait for few days.
love you rubben
just tell them i sent you and if they dont reply i am shitting inside their datacenter floor mate ricks can confirm it
Then ignore it. If you don't run emails, then why worry about it.
I actually wouldn't ignore it because now they've documented that you caused ip reputation damage and no telling how that's going to haunt you later in your relationship. Ticket and get it cleared up.
The whole /24 seems to have been listed, but I guess their notification system decided to notify everyone under the subnet (I got the email too).
Unless your exact IP is listed in the listing on Spamhaus (click "More info"), I wouldn't really be worried about it.
Received as well. Whatever, I am not renewing it anyway.
Looks like it.

166.88.160.67 this guy had fun
If you ever decided to do it in one of the racks, make sure to avoid storage drives to keep me data clean.
Thanks.
Yep. Hope didn't take you long.
And i just realised that mine is not even on this list.
Yeah received it too, not using it for emails, so don't matter to me
I've got one VPS in 136.0.41.0/24 and one in 38.45.91.0/24. Neither subnets are particularly clean (41 reported IPs across both subnets totaling 207 reports), but neither of the IPs assigned to me have any abuse records.
I wouldn't care if they block TCP/25. I don't use it anyway, but I don't want them doing what OrangeVPS did and suspend my VPS for "email spam" when it was the entire /24 that got blacklisted.
