Are you just worried there might be a DoS attack in the future or do you
believe you are under attack right now?

I got the feeling that most people asking on this list about DoS usually
suffer from some severe misconfiguration (open relay, etc.) and
misinterpret the situation. So providing some explanation or logs would
be the right thing to do (tm).
