# NSRegDelay <time> [RECOMMENDED]
# Sets the minimum length of time between consecutive uses of the
# REGISTER command. If not given, this restriction is disabled.
#
# WARNING: Not setting NSRegDelay, or setting it too low, will not
# only allow "registration flooding", but, if the
# mail-auth module is also loaded, will also allow users
# to abuse this command to send large quantities of mail
# (mailbombs) to arbitrary users!
# NSInitialRegDelay <time> [OPTIONAL]
# Sets the minimum length of time the user must be connected before
# using the REGISTER command for the first time. If not given,
# this restriction is disabled. This option can be helpful in
# preventing malicious bots from flooding your network with
# registrations.
