'vthrottle' evaluates mail transactions at the connection, the HELO (or EHLO) statement, and the stated source address of the mail. For each of these, a list is traversed and the observed time interval between observations is evaluated. If the observed interval is shorter than the policy interval, the mail is blocked by sending a failure reply code to the SMTP client; the message is then queued.
Because 'vthrottle' uses libmilter, it will not work with other
MTAs, only with sendmail.
