plesk 12.5 windows to have auto banning of IP for IP address that uses brute force to hack user email accounts.
I was looking at my smtp activity log file and I realize that it is possible to use brute force to try to hack into someone's email account.
Basically the log shows this IP address logging in with the user's password, then the server returns the message, invalid user or password.
The same IP then tries again automatically with another password and it just keeps going none stop.
Would be great if the system can just automatically ban this IP after maybe 10 failed attempt. So it doesn't eventually break through.
