Hi Aidas,

fail2ban is a commonly used solution for this situation.
It automatically adds iptables rules to drop traffic from IP's which
repeatedly hit the various log files.
It has plenty of configuration options.
It either supports courier's log format out-of-the-box or can be easily
configured to do so.
