Postfix Internal Spammer Mgr

December 4th, 2009

We need a script to manage internal spammers in our network.

currently, we are using postfix as our Outgoing RELAY server. We need a script such that:
1. detect that a paticular email address is relaying email from the postfix server and exceed the threshold defined in a text config file
the threshold should be A message / B minutes

2. do appropriate action with such threshold is exceeded. this is defined in the config file. actions include
a. send warning to a particular email address
b. stop sending out these emails. leave those email in the queue.

for 2a, warning should include the messages that is being spammed out.

3. a command (which is a script) shoudl be included to manually do 2b. and undo 2b. so , if i configured the script to send warning as in 2a. then, i can go into the system to stop the sender send our such emails immediate with the script, instead of auto suspend.
and when suspended, i should have a script to resume such.
