That is not how a lift of a ban works.


The point he was trying to raise is that that he is unable to view the wiki
(read only access) from these assesses.  I did not get the impression from
his original message that he wants to "lift" a ban.

I think he is suggesting that it might be reasonable to only block write
access rather than all access from known spammer addresses (if it is
technically feasible).
