Hello Matt,

There is a serious issue that you need to look at right away.

Just recently, we’ve been made aware of a security issue affecting users of Autoresponse Plus or ARP3. In short, hackers are hacking into Autoresponse Plus accounts (not the server, but the actual email client itself).

For more information, please read this article:

This issue is critical that you need to take action on this immediately as it can and will damage your IP reputation and will require a new IP and starting over OR will take significant time to repair.
