Most of the rate limiting is based on slowing down spammers. My
situation is different. Because I do front end spam filtering.instead of
their email coming from everywhere all of it comes from one place - me.
So when I get rate limited my customers who get their email from an ISP
that they don't control, complain of email delays. So I'm not the kind
of host that the rate limiting was intended to limit.
