In server.tab set: "SMTP-MaxErrors" "2" This will stop dictionary attacks but it is not remembered after the connection is dropped however it is sill quite effective. I wrote a program to collect these attacks from the log file and add them to spammers.tab but stopped using it because with a setting of 2 it was catching some legitimate mail.
