Yeah Blair is easy enough to understand, at least
when is making a public speech and he's paying attention
to enunciation and pronunciation. Most of us, I think,
speak rather sloppily in our day to day converations
by comparison.

Strongbox should be sending you only one email per IP block
or username suspended. If you are the victim of a large
ditributed proxy based attack where 100 different proxies
are being used in the attack and therefore getting suspended
that's the only case I can think of where you should be
getting a large number of email notices. Normally those types
of attacks are fairly short lived with Strongbox because Strongbox
takes some action to thoroughly frustrate the attacker and
hopefully they quickly give up and go away.
When these counter measures are effective you'll see a short
flood of emails lasting just a few minutes, then they'll
suddenly stop when the attacker gives up after a few minutes.
If that doesn't sound like what happened to you remind me
which site is yours (I ALMOST remember) and I'll take a look
at it.
