First of all, I find it unlikely that the Dunmer could've entered Black Marsh that easily considerding how dangerous the land is said to be.

"Even when the land became inhabitable again, fear of the disease kept most outsiders away. House Dres of Morrowind continued to send slavers into the north,"

Secondly, if the Dunmer were truly entering Black Marsh to take slaves, the government in the province might consider this an act of invasion from Morrowind and declaire war on them.

"The Arnesian War was one of the many during the troubled time of the Imperial Simulacrum of Jagar Tharn. What started as a simple slave revolt in the House Dres lands of the south built on itself until the swampy plains erupted with blood and fire, pitting Morrowind against Black Marsh."

"Since the abolishment of slavery, Black Marsh's relationship with its northern neighbor Morrowind has been much improved, though border clashes continue as Argonians have begun to reclaim land conquered during the Arnesian War."
