My system is undergoing a subscription attack. This made the mail
queue grow alarmingly, and because the software is trying to respond
to bad addresses, it has caused Microsoft to block us completely and
they refuse to remove the block right now.
We are taking steps to improve situation, have adjusted Exim so it
doesn't retry mails so often, MS objected to volume and irregularity
of mail from us. We are also looking at setting hourly rates,
although not sure where to set them
Captchas aren't a good solution as we have many thousands of blind,
and deaf-blind users.
There is stuff about the "secret form?" would this work? If I
understand it, the IP must match. Then there is stuff about the life
of the form? Do both conditions have to be true.? Many of our users
do not return a form quickly, they are not that good with their
assistive technology! The writing suggests five seconds, that would
never work for us.
Are there other things we can do to get us out of this mess?
Thanks in advance!
Dave
