closing the account seems like a slap on the wrist for the kind of problems this can cause most of us. Is there nothing else we can do?

We just had the same problem with a client sent out over 15,000 e-mails!  We’ve warned them about this last time they did it and we’ve disabled the user account and put the IP Address in the kill list.  But the damage was already done to our server in greatly slowing down e-mail.  Does anyone know of a good automated solution that can detect and auto-ban users / IP addresses?  We’ve tried the max recipients per message, but they are sending a single e-mail to one recipient at a time.

 

Any ideas would be great.

 

Thanks,

Anthony

Just booted a spammer from our service and deactivated everything. He's a printer and I quote "the kings of our industry get business this way so I have to spam to make money".

Do you guys just boot people like this or is there a process to report them to a blacklist or something?
