Hi!

Maybe you've already noticed some spam bots trying to deliver spam to exactly 100 recipients in one wash up. They take a list of common user names, add your domain name, and then loop through 100 RCPT TOs per mail. To slow them down you could use the settings smtp_ratelimit_hosts and smtp_ratelimit_rcpt. Be careful not to bother your customers/users with too large delays. Lowering recipients_max is not really feasible as RFC 5321 clearly states a minimum of 100.

ciao
 Markus
