Mixed

Results vary across gmx.com: of 12 URLs tested, 1 is blocked, 3 are disrupted some of the time, 5 load normally and 3 have no conclusive recent result. The Great Firewall resets the connection and silently drops its packets so requests time out. 441 tests have been run under this domain since 2011-09-27, the most recent on 2026-08-15.

Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://gmx.com is intermittent, https://gmx.com is not blocked.

The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.

About gmx.com and the Great Firewall

Is gmx.com blocked in mainland China?

Results vary across gmx.com: of 12 URLs tested, 1 is blocked, 3 are disrupted some of the time, 5 load normally and 3 have no conclusive recent result.

Why does http://gmx.com behave differently from https://gmx.com?

Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://gmx.com is intermittent, https://gmx.com is not blocked. The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.

How can I reach gmx.com from mainland China?

A VPN or another circumvention tool routes the request outside mainland China, past the filtering that blocks gmx.com. GreatFire runs GreatFire VPN; the Analyzer also tests the domains of many VPN and proxy providers, so you can check whether one is reachable before relying on it.
