Jordi,
Y
ou said the messages were sent from three gmail accounts, so depending on
how a sender is defined to be, the each mail sender may show up as a
different instance.
If you want to limit the message count from a particular domain, that will
ned to be accounted for as opposed to a single source (one IP address).
Seems like you have two choices:
1) Reduce the number of permitted senders from a unique host ID, or
2) Try to configure the HELO_CHECK to account for this ([Iv'e not actually
tried this).
Note that if different connecting sender shows up with different IP
addresses, you should see these in your log file and each host should have
a different count for instance.
Another thing -- I thought if greylisting is on, by default it will
consider anything with the first three octets of the address the same to
be considered a single sender, so again, check your logs to see if that's
the case or not. If the three sening emaila ccounts you speak of all have
IP ranges that don't fall in the same range of the first three octets,
then they will definitely all be cond\sidered different hosts.
In short, your logs don't lie, so believe what they tell you and use that
information to help determine what's really taking place!
Maybe send a piece of your logs (with substituted, made-up IP addresses if
privacy is an issue) so we can see a smaple of what you are logging.
Regards,
--Tobias
P.S. Unfortunately, I don't think there is way to specify diffent
specific limys based on particular domains or senders -- that certainly
would be a useful additional feature.

Great that that works!
It seems at first look; almost if I've done the test from smtp-source
tool. But there's an event that I don't understand.
One of my beta-testers has done the next:
* send a 1500 total messages from three gmail accounts (in 500 messahes
chunks) to his opengea.org (the SMTP server I admin and which has
policyd enabled) account.
Suprisingly, he has viewed the 1500 messages in his entry folder.
Moreover, the sended messages has been processed only in half an hour.
This behaviour doesn't coincide with the next policyd current values
I've in my config policy file:
RECIPIENTTHROTTLE=1
RECIPIENTMSGLIMIT=1000
RECIPIENTTIMELIMIT=1h
RECIPIENT_QUOTA_REJECTION="Quota Exceeded."
¿What's wrong?
