What we use got from someone else on the list (!) who only allowed two. We
do three. For good measure delays them also.

acl_check_rcpt:

  # We stall people who try 3 or more illegal recipients
  deny  message      = Max 3 failed recipients allowed
        condition    = ${if >{$rcpt_fail_count}{2} {1}}
        delay        = ${eval: ($rcpt_fail_count) * 30}s
        log_message  = $rcpt_fail_count failed recipient attempts


Enjoy
