This topic just came up, again, in james-user last week
(http://archives.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listId=21&msgNo=6059), and is
related to a discussion from last summer
(http://archives.apache.org/eyebrowse/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
apache.org&by=thread&from=225096). If you want to skip other discussion,
you could go directly to
http://archives.apache.org/eyebrowse/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
he.org&msgNo=4076.
Perhaps you, Chris, Steve, Jason and others would like to work on it?

Subject: Re: Personal IP blacklists
My dream SMTP server has a GUI reminiscent of the control room at a
power plant, with gauges which show every parameter which might be
important to the operator, and with valves to throttle or completely
shut down any segment of the operation which seems to be getting out
of hand.
Parameters such as the following would have both gauges (and/or
warning lights and whistles) and values (operator-settable limits):
total incoming messages/(unit time)
total incoming connections/(unit time)
total incoming bytes/(unit time)
total outgoing ... (the same three as above)
total volume of mail held in local mailboxes
total volume of mail held in local spools
ip addresses generating most of the traffic/(recent unit of time)
ip addresses generating most of the connections/(recent unit of time)
local addresses receiving large quantities of mail
local addresses sending large quantities of mail
Also, another approach, I would prefer to have the server return an
error upon RCPT TO: <unknownJoe>, rather than accept the message as
James does at present. I think Noel said there were plans to change
this in an upcoming James.
