Exim Dictionary Attack ACL for cPanel

There does not appear to be anything cpanel specific about that code. It should work just the same with DA.

In the ACL "drop message = Appears to be a dictionary attack" exim calls the script every time the smtp connection sends email to a bad email address. On the 4th time the script is called from the same IP exim drops the connection and adds the IP to its blacklist file where future emails from the same IP are dropped in ACL "drop hosts = /etc/exim_deny"
 
The code looks interesting; I'll check into adding it to SpamBlocker3.
