Here too, but it eats nearly 100% of System- and CPU-Resources...

It might be worth looking for a couple of addresses that get hit
repeatedly and temporarily activating them

I have tried this too and it reduce the load down to 15% but they are
coming in realy fast



I don't understand how refusing after MAIL could take 6 times as much
resources as accepting the message.  By refusing, you don't receive
the message body and you don't have to output the message to a mailer.
That has to use less resources than accepting.  I would be taking a
close look at what your server is doing during rejection.  This just
seems very wrong to me.
