Hi,

Our dedicated servers (win2k) allow our hosted customers to use MS SMTP to send mails from their sites. But some are sending too many mails each day. Is there a way to limit number of emails sent with MS SMTP by a specific customer ? (all customers share the same IP)

Thanks

the problem with
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q258/7/48.asp
is that you cannot setup a limit per website. So if you set a limit and one of your customer send 20 000 messages all your others customers can not send.

I'm looking for a solution to limit each user, not all in the same time.

Any idea ?
