Hi -

To reply to everyone at once (instead of flooding mail boxes):

1.  Maybe simply change their password after blocking them from receiving?

With clients with 20 passwords, not only is this a lot of work, but then we 
have
to turn them back on, remember the passwords, etc...

2.  You could blackhole their ip in your router...

No good - we're a host, not an ISP, so most people come in from God knows 
where...

3.  Never tried it, but if you know the IP range you could:
Use the nifty little "Control access" buttons for the SMTP/POP3 services
and exclude them.

Same as above.


Since there is no built in way to do it, I'm writing a program to do it for me.
I've got Cold Fusion on the box, but I'm sure there are other languages that
will work.  When I have it done, I'll let everyone know and whoever wants
it is welcome to it.

Thanks

Chris
