If I understand correctly, you want to send emails to people at that
provider, but want to rate limit your outgoing connection numbers. I
would queue the incoming messages, and then deliver with -qq to send all
the messages down a single connection. It adds a slight delay, but not
as much as having connections reset, presumably.
