Would it help to put in a fairly small limit on the number of posts/day
from any one user? Its a parm in the list header.
>From the Lsoft listowners manual:
Beginning with 1.8c, you can control the maximum number of postings per
day per subscriber on a list-by-list basis by setting the new (optional)
second parameter of the "Daily-Threshold=" list header keyword. The
default is to have no such daily limit per user.
If set, when the per-subscriber threshold is reached, the subscriber is
told that his message cannot be processed because he has reached the
limit for today, and that he should repost his message at a later time.
The counter for this limit resets to zero at midnight for all lists.
This limit is waived for the list owner(s) and any list
editors/moderators.
If you want to set this limit, note that an overall daily threshold must
be set for the list in the first parameter of the keyword. If no
"Daily-Threshold=" keyword is already present in your list header, the
default is "Daily-Threshold= 50". Thus, to leave the default value in
force and to add a daily limit of 5 postings per day per user, you would
code:
* Daily-Threshold= 50,5
