Control the message rate (messages sent per minute)

[JeremyTBradshaw]

We have an application using MailKit to consume our Exchange server's Client Frontend connector, which has the MessageRateLimit set to 30. The client continues to exceed this limit and we don't want to increase our message rate limit on the server. Can anyone please advise if there is an easy way in MailKit itself to control the message rate so that it won't even ever try to send more than 30 messages in a single minute?

Thanks in advance.

There's nothing like that in MailKit. You'll have to implement that in your code that uses SmtpClient to send messages.
