Glossary

dictionary attack - A dictionary attacker uses automated tools to try to send a message to every letter/number combination imaginable at your domain (user1@mydomain.com, asdfsafd@mydomain.com, 123@mydomain.com, etc.), hoping that some of these messages will reach real users. This eats network resources, and, in extreme cases, can crash your mail servers, preventing legitimate mail from reaching your users. When properly configured, trimMail Inbox stops these attacks at the front door, dramatically reducing bandwidth, cpu, memory, and storage demands downstream.
