Hi Eliot

 Maybe I'm missing something obvious but do how you get rate-limiting per
TCP *flow* with Cisco IOS ?

It is more trouble than its worth. SPAM is not a technical problem. It is a
social problem. Using technical methods is not going to solve the problem.
In the end, every time we come up with another method of detecting and
blocking spam, another method is bypassing this defense is going to show up.
