I think you are misunderstanding. Neither james or any other mail exchanger or imap server can take over the work fail2ban can do. Fail2ban can provide a dynamic firewall, by blocking ip addresses that misbehave on the fly. This blocking happens at network level rather than application level so is much more efficient and safer than james/exim4/postfix alone can achieve with even the finest configuration tweaks. -- David Matthews m...@dmatthews.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: server-user-unsubscr...@james.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: server-user-h...@james.apache.org
