As the Philip and the spec says, only if they use multiple
simultaneous IP-level connections. If they feed multiple RCPTs on the
same MAIL FROM:, that won't have any effect. If they feed multiple
messages, in serial, down the same connection it won't have any
efffect. If they repeatedly close the connection and open a new one,
that won't have any effect.
Each of these scenarios presents a single simultaneous connection from
the host.
(well, it will if you set the max to 0, but in that case why run exim? :-))
