Is there a way limiting the messages coming from one IP/relay per day?
Since some days I become bombed by  over  700.000  backscatters  now  my
78.000 users are bombed...

My Server reject any unknown "local" parts, but I am targeted by someone
which DoS my Server using two dictionaries with french "Firstnames"  and
"Familynames" and using any combinations seperated by a DOT.

Currently I have collected over 7000 different  "Familynames"  and  3500
"Firstnames" and I am not able to stop it...

The problem is, if they hit a valid "local" part, some  hours  later  is
the account bombed with 10-30 messages per hour from all over the world.

Currently they are 1400 users hit by this DoS.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
