Re: [Ilohamail-users] Automatical script that use ilohamail to spam

[Ryo C. <ry...@il...>]

IlohaMail has a built in feature that limits the number of messages that
can be sent from a single session to a fairly low number.  You can only
send to (IIRC) about 100 recipients per session, and send no more
frequently than once every 15 seconds.  Unless someone found a way to
bypass these mechanisms, using IlohaMail to send spam is vastly less
efficient compared to the alternatives...  Have they given you any sort
of evidence that IlohaMail is indeed being used?

Anyway, if IlohaMail is indeed being used, you may want to find out
who's abusing your system (since they'd have to log in to send
messages) and disable the account.
