Throttle SMTP

We're having a HUGE problem with users responding to phishing attempts.  Is there a way in Astaro to throttle smtp traffic and or stop mail flow if a set threshold is reached?

Thanks for any insight.  Now, back to the Prozac.

  • Is your problem phishing or that spammers are taking over accounts in your organization and then using them to send spam?  If the latter, then there should be a setting or two in your mail server to help limit the number of outbound emails.

    If the content of the phishing emails indicates that your organization is being targeted, you should send a new email to spearphish@labs.sophos.com with the phishing email included as an attachment.  One attachment per email to Sophos Labs.

    You might be interested in the Phishing Awareness page on the Angelo State University site.
