What could not be verified?

    How it was checked

    Source 1 https://help.mail.ru/webmaster/indexing/robots/types_robots (socket hang up; same for /webmaster, /webmaster/ and /webmaster/indexing/robots); source 2 https://go.mail.ru/help/robots (HTTP 301 to the source 1 URL, which then failed).
