Any firewall is able to download the extreme-IP list using the 
ASSP-Stats-interface: http://your.assp:55553/extremeblack
RTM

increase 'autValencePB' , if it helps

IMHO - these auth attempts are harmless. ASSP is able to handle them in an 
early state. There is no need to block those connections in a very early 
state (at connection time).

>Setting MaxAUTHErrors to 1 only works once the actor exceeds 1.

This blocks the IP for 5-10 minutes. Blocking an IP permanently because of 
a single failed AUTH is not wise.

>strangely using the same external email address as the username
Have a look at the 'AUTHUserIPfrequency' option. Because the requests are 
using the same AUTH-users every time.

Hiya Doug.  Good to hear from you.  Thanks for the reply.

We're all Windows here, so no iptables = no Fail2Ban :(     And I don't 
see a way of getting ASSP's ip lists >automatically< in the hardware 
firewalls that we use.

The actor is attempting to sign in from at least a couple dozen IP's, 
strangely using the same external email address as the username.  It's 
>not< one of our domains.  Is there a way for ASSP to do an early deny and 
add the IP to a block based only on the username provided at the smtp auth 
login time?  bombRE and related, seem to go into effect only with the true 
header/body.  SMTP auth isn't in the envelope.

Furthermore, I want to ban after even 1 failed try.  Setting MaxAUTHErrors 
to 1 only works once the actor exceeds 1.  I don't want them to be able to 
try a 2nd time.  Setting it to 0 disables it.  Setting to -1 blocks 
immediately regardless of success - so that doesn't work, I need users to 
be able to authenticate on the alternate ports.

I don't think that is currently an option with ASSP, but I currently do 
that with fail2ban, since I only auth on 587
