FYI, i've found something that will be maybe useful for this.

tcpblocker from inter7 folks ( http://inter7.com/?page=tcpblocker )

This will easily limit the number of connections to SMTP from a particular
IP for a determined period of time (e.g. i don't wanna more than 100 tcp
connections in 15 minutes from a particular IP).

This, combined with limiting size of messages and rcpt, and some bandwith
policying will do the trick.
