If I set the IP of our Barracuda in there, then no users can send from
Outlook regardless if they are using Authentication or not.

OK, I am going to jump in here as I would like to know how to tell the
server to only accept email from the gateway, but also still allow users to
send if they authenticate.  I know this might be obvious, but I have not
found a way to do this.

A gateway is the only solution I know of for distributed dictionary attacks.
Since the attacks are coming from all over the place, there's no IP to
block.

All the gateway does is move the brunt of the attack off of the primary mail
server to the gateway server.  The gateway server should then become your
primary MX record, replacing your existing server, and the "real" primary
should be locked down to only receive SMTP traffic from your gateway.  That
way attackers who cache your MX records won't be able to continue to hit it.

Are there any new strategies for blocking dictionary attacks with Declude?
Our log files are growing and mostly due to the following stacking up it
seems a zillion times over...

ERR MAIL.DOMAIN.NET invalid user

We have used BlackIce for years and helps a lot for those that try X number
SMTP fails in X seconds, but does not handle all these invalid user
attempts. I searched archives and found good thread back in March this year
"How do they do it?" and Scott replied a Declude solution may be possibly
forthcoming. We only handle about 15k messages a day and small shop. Len's
IMgate or another Postfix gateway solution I know would be best - but not
affordable for us right now installing and managing a separate Linux box. It
is difficult for me to keep up-to-date with daily posts, so wondering if any
new strategies I might have missed.  Thanks!
