Or you could use postfwd. But in practice I don't see what the
difference would be. Either way you're denying a client's connection
attempts. And since anvil is part of Postfix, and in machine code,
whereas postfwd is a perl policy daemon, it's must faster and more
efficient.
Others have very recently used smtpd_client_connection_count_limit
successfully to keep legit bulk senders from hammering their queues.
See the archives for the last few months.
Many thanks to those who replied.
I understand now.
