The list keyword is Daily-Threshold.  Defaults to 50.

A new keyword will be introduced in release 1.5n: "Daily-Threshold",
which will default to 50.  It indicates the maximum number of acceptable
mailings a day for the list; if more than this amount is received in any
given day, the list will be placed in hold status and the owner will be
notified.  The "counter" will then be reset so that a "FREE" command will
release the list and let in up to Daily-Threshold additional mailings.
The list will remain held until manually released (ie it won't be reset
at midnight).  This should prevent loops from going on forever.  If you
are not satisfied with the default value, you should be sure to change it
before installing release 1.5n.
