I REALLY suck at regular expressions, so please bear with me if this is an easy one for you. My MTA is setup to greylist sites that try brute force AUTH attacks. That's great,  but it also floods my log files when they keep trying and the MTA keeps rejecting. I copied an example of the log file entry below. Can someone come up with a filter that I can put in fail2ban that would block the IP for the default time period?

Thanks!
