Now that's a very interesting idea, thank you! I will investigate this.
If you don't expect yor firewall to handle 45K+ IPs, I'm not how you expect dovecot will handle a comma separated string with 45K+ entries any better. If you want to turn your global backlist into a per-user whitelist, that would be perfectly doable though.
lets call it denynets so :)
avises is bad when users does not understand why its allownets and still fokus on block bad ips then just keep list of good client ips where login is not fail, if dovecot is hard to understand try windows 10 then :)
