Hi,

I'm running through the brilliant 'Book of Postfix' and running into
some confusion with anvil/rate control - specifically syntax. around
page 384

smtpd_client_connection_limit_exceptions = 
smtpd_client_connection_rate_limit = 3
smtpd_client_connection_count_limit = 3
client_connection_rate_time_unit = 60s
client_connection_status_update_time = 1m

But this does not seem to work as intended on my Postfix (2.5.5)
The man gives this;

Looking at the man for anvil I have different syntax options;

      anvil_rate_time_unit (60s)
              The  time  unit  over which client connection rates
              and other rates are calculated.

       anvil_status_update_time (600s)
              How frequently the  anvil(8)  connection  and  rate
              limiting server logs peak usage information.

Which makes me wonder what the right syntax should be. Has the syntax
changed since the box was produced or is it going to change in the near
future?
