Did you try milter-limit? It has per Ip/user/domain rate limits.

Sorry for the top posting  ikm writing from my phone.

Vispan uses iptables which I don't want to use and it adds ip
addresses which have sent spam. It's a nice feature but it's not what
I want here, these newsletters may very well not be spam but I simply
don't want them to bog down the servers by sending thousands of mail
in a few minutes.
