Is there an option to limit the number of connection from a single mail
server to my wcsmtp server. I have found the option to limit the total
number of connections but what happens is some spammer tries to connect
multiple times until they are the only one to get a connection to the mail
server and no one else can get through. Seems like some of them hold the
connection open a long time as well thus preventing a legitimate email
server from connecting.

On a different note, what constitutes an ip getting placed in the iptrack
folder. I currently have it set to not expire those ip numbers in hope to
help alleviate some potential spammer connections to the server.

Thanks in advance.
