Wow, what a lot of ratelimit questions we suddenly have :)

You need something like this in the global settings:

acl_not_smtp = acl_check_notsmtp


...and then something like this:

acl_check_notsmtp:

  # You need a way to identify the sending user
  # This is NOT the "MAIL FROM" necessarily, nor the From:
  # If using Horde/IMP you should have a Received line of the form
  # Received: from host.domain (host.domain [1.2.3.4]) 
  #     by your_mail_server (IMP) with HTTP 
  #     for <sending_user@localhost>; Tue, 21 Oct 2008 09:36:46 +0100
  # From this you can glean the originating user


...snip other bits of the ACL...

  ## Stick the user in $acl_m0
  warn set acl_m0  = ${if match{$h_Received:}\
                               {\N.+<([^>@]+)@localhost>;\N}\
                               {$1}\
                               {}\
                      }


  ## At this point $acl_m0 contains the sending username
     warn ratelimit   = 200 / 1d / leaky / user-$acl_m0
          control     = freeze
          log_message = Frozen by ACL - exceeded ratelimit - \
                        $sender_rate/$sender_rate_period (User:$acl_m0)


accept


[Thanks to Mike Cardwell, also of this parish, for most of that]

Note that snippet isn't counting RCPTs, because in the not_smtp phase
there are no RCPT TO commands - it's not SMTP, see? It's counting
messages but it should give you a base to work from.
