Did you test it by connecting to port 25 and saying 'helo ylmf-pc' and
see the delay before it drops the connection? The problem is, even
though *that* connection is stalled it doesn't stop them from making
another connection in the meantime. This kind of delay is actually a
good way to DOS yourself as all your incoming slots are tied up waiting
on the 180 second delay!
