OK. Make it 100, or make it "20 by default, user can ask for 100". Or
anything else like that. The *POINT* was that too often, a compromised
end-user machine can send *THOUSANDS* of messages. Not tens. Not
hundreds. Thousands.
Remember - if you're catching 1M spams/day, that means that the spammer
has to have a machines*rate product over 1M spams/day. If there's 10 billion
spams/day total, the total machines*rate product has to be over 10G. And
if there's only several million source machines, that means the rate has to be
in the thousands.
