There is no easy way to do this, I guess if you have way to return

delay_until=<unix_timestamp+1> from your passdb, you can limit the speed a bit.

E.g. delay_until=1723723664

Hello

one of our users makes too quick IMAP connections to the server.

$ sudo tail -10000 /var/log/mail.log|grep **@**mail.com|wc -l 3544

logs like this:

Aug 15 19:54:10 mx dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<**@**mail.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=**, lip=**, mpid=4151830, TLS, session=<UPotgLcfTOjYUzTN>

How can I implement a Frequency Control on client connections to slow down his requests?

Thank you.
