10.3-RELEASE-p21

I am trying to restrict woodpecker attempts to my mail server (stupid spamware regards rejects and a long banner it as a challenge), and following advice on this list I used the following (the important bit, anyway):

    #
    # No more than 10/IP, or 5/m should be plenty.
    #
    pass inet proto tcp from any to any port smtp \
        flags S/SA keep state \
        (max-src-conn 10, max-src-conn-rate 5/60, \
        overload <woodpeckers> flush global)

And here is a sample log; I can see that the 10/IP works, but the 5/m does
not seem to be blocking the 10s attempts:

What have I done wrong?  Does max-src-conn-rate actually work?
