Not quite the same as the vpopmail slamming you are getting, but I
eliminated nearly all the brute force efforts at local login accounts
via the use of BlockHosts:

Maybe there's something similar, or an extension for it, to include
vpopmail slamming?

It seems that my mail server was attacked yesterday. I have already
blacklisted the IP. My question is, how can I prevent this from
happening? I do not need smtp access to my server remotely and i do
not have remote users. All e-mail transactions are done through
webmail and/or in my internal lan.Thanks for any suggestions.
