When this happened to a customer who used Zen to host their domain and 
provide email services, I rang Zen to find out why.  They explained that 
my customer's IP was blocked by their firewall.  They volunteered to 
explicitly allow the IP through but agreed that the block would be 
applied again when the CGNAT service changed the IP for another which 
also happened to be blacklisted.

The solution was for my customer to buy a mobile broadband internet 
service from a supplier offering a static IP - at a rather higher price. 
  Being a business they could afford it .... -
