I own the domain com.org and have it hosted with a web provider on a Cobalt
Raq machine. Just yesterday I was inundated by thousands of emails from the
same "guy" addressed every letter combination @com.org. As soon as I
noticed it, I added a procmail rule to send them to the dev/null can. But
it still took another hour before the barrage stopped. I'm trying to think
of way to automatically block something like this in the future. Any ideas?
