Rate limit for authenticated outgoing mails [feature request] #261

Open ponchofiesta opened 4 years ago

ponchofiesta commented 4 years ago

In past years I had two compromised user accounts. Some spammer used these accounts to send thousands of spam mails. In such situations I would have a rate limiting to slow down spammers and keep the impact low.

I know Exim has a built-in rate limiting feature but I don't know how to set up this correctly.

I adapted it from exim4u now:
