I wouldn't characterize what I've seen as "extreme" at any of the observation points I'm monitoring, but I have seen a moderate number of repeated attempts to authenticate against a mix of existing/non-existing accounts, some of which happened slowly and some of which were rapid. I used the past tense there because my response was to firewall out (what I believe to be) the relevant ranges from access to POP(S)/IMAP(S)/submission as applicable to various servers. ---rsk _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
