Yeah, I know the mail system impact is minimal ...   it's just that if I
see something banging on SMTP and getting refused, I kinda don't want it
banging on anything else either.

If fail2ban can run any script then yeah, I should be able to pretty
easily have it connect to the firewall and send a 'shorewall drop
1.2.3.4'.  I haven't ever installed fail2ban yet which is why I was
asking if anyone had any tips to share.
