On my systems, the BFD brute force detection will block you.
It adds the lines to your APF deny file.

cat  /etc/apf/deny_hosts.rules  might show something like
# added 94.102.52.186 on 09/08/14 14:09:01 with comment: {bfd.sendmail}
94.102.52.186

Adjust the rules in
/usr/local/bfd/rules/sendmail
or
/usr/local/bfd/rules/dovecot
or ...
