iRedMail ships Policyd-1.8.x for sender & recipient throttling, but it's disabled by default. You can enable it by follow below steps on Debian:

  • Disable throttling in /etc/postfix-policyd.conf:
File: /etc/policyd.conf
SENDERTHROTTLE=0
SENDER_THROTTLE_SASL=0
SENDER_THROTTLE_HOST=0

RECIPIENTTHROTTLE=0
  • Enable throttling in /etc/postfix-policyd_sender_throttle.conf:
File: /etc/postfix-policyd_sender_throttle.conf
SENDERTHROTTLE=1
SENDER_THROTTLE_SASL=1
SENDER_THROTTLE_HOST=0

RECIPIENTTHROTTLE=1
  • Copy /etc/init.d/postfix-policyd to /etc/init.d/postfix-policyd_sender_throttle, change PID and config file locations, comment 3 lines:
File: /etc/init.d/postfix-policyd_sender_throttle
#
# ---- Change provides in file header ----
#
# Provides: postfix-policyd_sender_throttle

#
# ---- Change below variables  ----
CONFIG='/etc/postfix-policyd_sender_throttle.conf'
PIDFILE='/var/run/policyd_sender_throttle.pid'

#
# ---- Comment below 3 lines ----
#
#if [ -f /etc/default/postfix-policyd ] ; then
#	. /etc/default/postfix-policyd
#fi
  • Start policyd via /etc/init.d/postfix-policyd_sender_throttle:
Terminal:
# update-rc.d 
# /etc/init.d/postfix-policyd_sender_throttle restart

It will listen on two ports: 10031, 10032. You can verify it via command netstat:

Terminal:
# netstat -ntlp | grep -i 1003
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:10031             0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN      3454/policyd        
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:10032             0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN      3459/policyd
  • Enable throttling in Postfix /etc/postfix/main.cf:
File: /etc/postfix/main.cf
smtpd_end_of_data_restrictions = check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10032

Restart postfix:

Terminal:
# /etc/init.d/postfix restart

That's all. Enjoy. :)
