When senders chronically exceed the available output bandwidth, rate
limits don't help.  They just create massive blockages upstream, that
will eventually cause large problems.

The only solution is to reduce the actual volume of messages originated,
or to be able to identify inadvertent floods, and park most of the
flood in a short-term quarantine (to be deleted after a sanity check).

The job is to identify the root cause, and adress that.
