Kai,

No, James doesn't support tarpitting.  There are some plans to add a generic
filter package to James v3, which would bridge between the Mailet API and
the handlers for purposes of providing a means to short circuit or otherwise
control a connection.

If you search the archives, you ought to find discussion on the subject, as
it comes up from time to time.  I would only use the Mailets / Matchers to
educate the filter.  The implementation of the package would have access to
Avalon services that we don't expose to Matchers and Mailets, such as a
Scheduler.

The SMTO handler changes to accommodate this, and there are some issues
related to RFC compliance.  Again, there should be discussion of this in the
archives.

Someone has already been working on this, so let me find out the status
before you invest effort in it.

P.S.  Someone had also been working on a metrics package a while back, which
perhaps might be resurrected in some form or another.
