OK,

Legitimate email is the normal authenticated users, newsletter, or something 
else, I suppose.
I'd like to put a delay in internal spammers cases.
Because I have today "customers" that pay to send 3 thousand spams per day.
The idea is let the authenticated user send 300 messages per hour in maximum 3K 
per 24h.
This is in company contract, out of this, I need to increase the delay time to 
don't punish the regular customers.

I'm curious And the grotesque delay time? How long?

As documented these features must not be used to control the 
flow of LEGITIMATE email.
