Monitoring Outbound Email Traffic/Counts

I am suspicious that someone is using a bot to send spam through one of my contact forms.

Can I somehow cap the number of emails per time per account or domain?

At least get a report?

Thanks, Ken

Postfix doesn't have a way to cap how many emails are sent per account.

If you want a report (outside of what you can get from within Virtualmin's existing monitoring tools), you'd have to start looking at some other tools. An example of a tool that can be used for generating statistics from a Postfix email log is called pflogsumm, you can get it here:
