Thank you for good information.
But, Netscape Messaging Server(NMS) cannot filter following
patterns..
rcpt to: postmaster@somewhere.dom <-- correct address
rcpt to: postmaster@somewhere.dom
...
unlimited times
...
I guess NMS allocate all RCPT TO in NT's memory by malloc() and
somehow they never free them. That's the problem.
AND you cannot see any log after this attack.
