What about something like this (which was what I was thinking):
warn condition = ... bad recipient ...
ratelimit = 1/1h/per_cmd
delay = 30s
I have no clue if this works though - I spent all of 5 minutes thinking over
the problem and coming up with what I hope is a solution. The thought
process is that if and ONLY if the condition is true (ie, there was a bad
recipient and you DO want to increment the ratelimit count), then the
ratelimit is checked (and incremented - which is the correct method of op
here), and finally if the ratelimit is found to be exceeded, the delay of
30s is applied.
Or have I missed something? I have yet to actually use the ratelimit
command to actually do anything other than just log ratelimits (since I had
no idea what limits to set, and never got around to it).
Eli.
