Should I provide an option to combine both of these options into one ? Or an option to use any one of the two throttlings? > I don't see why you would have a separate table for messages. Just add the post_after_time >attribute to the message's metadata. Yes, since we will make changes in the msg metadata so now we will not require database 2, database 1 will be required for counting post on threads, also, whether the threads are same or not will be decided according to the subject header. For a subject header "abc" we consider the following subjects as the same: Re: abc Fwd: abc abc We will strip the prefixes Re, Fwd off before adding them to database 1. Also I had to ask, would it be good if we provide the list-admin with an option to bypass this throttling for some people? Like the mailman-developers in this case, we may allow few mailman developers bypass this throttling effect and those developers will be decided by the list-admin.
