Change the passwords. Then, google for policy, postfwd, etc. which
support long-term rate limits.

hi,
thanks for the response, looks like you replied instead 
of replying all!
i am using policyd but it looks like it has no control
once the initial connection is established , authenticated
and pipelining is being used to pump spam . Is it really
so?.

Also can anyone pls guide if/how  it is possible to know what
account was compromised by seeing the files that
lie in the deferred section of postfix queue?
