Thank you Renoir for your message.  I will bring this up with management to see if they will purchase
the product, in the meantime is there a way to reset the count for my ip address.

Hi Deborah,

I’m not involved with the Validator but I can forward the message to the right place.

Maybe your team was making too many requests for what the system would allow from a single location. The Validator maintainers must throttle the traffic because it would overwhelm the systems.

As I understand it you are using the free version of validator, right?

Have you heard of the Validator Suite[1]? Its meant to be used specifically for what you seem to be doing.

Bien le bonjour, de Montréal,
