Subject: [exim] Blocking "some messages" for a specific time

Hi

We run Exim 4.5 as a Relay-Mail-Gateway. We get about 5000 Emails a day.
This gateway accepts messages from specified users and relays them to an
other service, which generates sms over GSM. So we have also some accounting
for the allowed domains. Normally everything runs ok, but once we had an
accident. Someone wrote for himself a script (with incorrect code) and this
flooded our exim or on the other hand it used all credits from the sms
service within 2 hours.

Now my question:

We'd like to block some users for about 2 or more hours if they write more
than 10 messages in a minute. We are looking for a solution without
databases.

Are there any suggestions, please help?

Regards
Matthias Isler
