Hi,
I am currently checking Sender rates in my log files with this in the config
file
# Log all senders' rates
warn ratelimit = 0 / 1h / strict
log_message = Sender rate $sender_rate / $sender_rate_period
and it is working as expected apart from I have noticed that some senders
are coming from the same IP number but different hostnames.
So I assume that the IP number is the IP number of their internet connection
and the various hostnames refer to the PCs in their office
network. For example
2011-09-05 14:22:36 H=(xxxTCPTMS02.xxxxxx.com) [4x.18x.6x.6] Warning: Sender
rate 135.9 / 1h
2011-09-05 14:22:55 H=(xxx) [4x.18x.6x.6] Warning: Sender rate 136.2 / 1h
So does that mean that the combined sender rates for both these hosts is
135.9 + 136.2 = 272.1
or is the combined sender rates 136.2 for these two?
My next step is to add some rate limiting levels as this is a shared server
with limited resources.
Thanks,
Oliver
