Hello Andrey,

You've piqued my interest now :-)
I have used fail2ban for many things, dovecot, postfix-auth, ssh (moot, after I 
changed the port), roundcube, etc.

What are other tools you would recommend? I have seen the postfix anvil daemon 
at work in the background.

I have gotten used to using fail2ban, and it seems to do the job, but if there 
is something better, I would like to check it out :-)
