So I take it that next time you conduct expected maintenance, knowing that this non-malfunction has taken place, you'll kindly notify your users in advance? That would be the professional way of handling it, and would alleviate a lot of concerns.

mb-clean seems to have fixed it.

Even though I posted two logs as requested, you still need to reproduce the block in order to fix it? MB-Clean removes all of my settings, reverts everything back to default, doesn't it?

Please elaborate... is this a legitimate detection or a false positive?

Malwarebytes tarted blocking smtp.suddenlink.net about 5 days ago with v3.2.2.2018. I had to exclude it. Today I installed 3.3.1 and tried removing the exclusion, but it gets blocked again, so it's excluded again.
