    Could it be your provider just doing a port scan?

    I used ip lookup and it was traced back to England. Each time I unblock the ip it starts trying to send mail to my bbs using bad recipients.

    I have two ip's attempting to use my smtp server every 2 minutes. 80.94.95.209 attempting send mail to guy@synchro.net and 80.94.95.248 attempting to send mail to shop@synchro.net I finally banned their
    ips in the silent list. Is this a good procedure. It goes on all day
    and nite unless I do. Does this happen to anyone else? Thank you and
    have a good day.

    block that entire subnet...it is a hosting site and if they have one bad client, they're likely to have others, too...

    80.94.95.0/24

    FWIW: plug those IPs into uncle google and take a look at the results...

    portscans do not involved trying to send email to @synchro.net
    addresses ;)

    Those IPAs belong to "Unmanaged, LTD," which appears to be linked to Bunea Telecom. If they are giving you grief, I'd see no issue adding them to the ip-silent.can file.
