Dunno.

I'd simply insist on proper AUTH *AND* on port 587 with TLS myself.

Won't get fixed any other way.

Mind, I've allowed 50 baud and 12.5 baud 'quarter speed' telex w/o auth
into an internet gateway hosted on IBM 3080 & 3090.

OTOH, they WERE arriving from a dominant-carrier's 'nailed up' global
private wire, not IP, and one cannot generate all that much garbage at
those speeds anyway, so not a great deal of risk.

Pehaps you could do that?

Delay and throttle your fossilized account to the point of uselessness
to a zombot farm.

That, too, is an incentive for the sumitter to get their head out.
