Hello,
Looking at the online current Exim docs about ratelimiting the number of
message recipients. In particular when the ratelimit is not used in the
RCPT ACL. In section 39 [1] it states:
=====
In acl_smtp_rcpt the rate is updated one recipient at a time; in the
other ACLs the rate is updated with the total recipient count in one go.
=====
However, is the 'total recipient count' the number of RCPT commands
received (whether accepted or not), or the number of accepted RCPT
commands?
In our case I was going to add 'count = $rcpt_count' to the ratelimit,
which would correspond to the number of RCPT commands whether they were
accepted or not.
Thanks,
John.
