I'm intrigued by this idea.  During a given minute of time I may get 1000 messages.  
1/4 of them are slown down (occupying more SMTP/Declude sessions), but the burdon is 
spread out.

Can this be applied to increase server capacity?  If I throttle, at the firewall, the 
IPs of spammers, will the load on my server be less?

Has anyone tried this on a maxed out server?
