> Jean-Philippe,
>     December 2018, one of my site was getting a brute-force attack and
> getting past fail2ban by using multiple ip addresses - mainly on port 465
> and from non-US countries. They compromised about 15 mail accounts and
> started sending out bad stuff. The Maxmind (Fragmented) Non-Us list was to
> big for iptables. So I used the old original world IP list excluding US.
> This did stop the attack but many US addresses were also excluded, so I

> The Geoip (Mail) Contrib blocks email but access to 465 or webmail.

you should be able to block that too with fail2ban, of course need some manual
configuration
I was able to block wordpress distributed DoS attack this way.

> I was really looking forward to a GeoIP solution for that.   
> If the limit gets set to 50 that would be a good start.
> I can then remove my 40DenyRiffRaff and test.
> Thanks all.
