Hi Jaco,

I did not have any issues until now with these settings[1]. I had again abuse 
from Digital ocean and Microsoft. I thought these settings would solve my 
issues. However looking at the logs I have a lot of these entries

to db: 'unconnected' user: 'unauthenticated' host:

before these entries are logged:

Aborted connection 3077 to db: xxxx user: 'aaaaaa' host:

Can it be that the user is being blocked and when then the abuse continues, 
these 'unauthenticated' are triggering the global server blocking?
