I would suggest you use a front end firewall to control possible brute force or abnormal connections. Iptables, shorewall are great ways to control this as well. I use a combination of Sonicwall NSA, Shorewall, and Trend Micro OSSEC to monitor this type of behavior.

Please, do not top post. Do you mean with throttling same as with bandwidth throttling: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling So that "a server administrator may implement bandwidth throttling to control the number of requests a server responds to within a specified period of time"? Interesting idea: to limit the load originating from brute-force attacks it might be a good idea to throttle the requests down during night time. But I have no idea how one might to accomplish this, at least there is no direct support in qmailtoaster for this, I assume?
