Is any throttling applied to API calls or user deletion? I've written code which deletes users which haven't logged in for more than 365 days. I've configured last login tracking as described in https://docs.iredmail.org/track.user.last.login.html
My code authenticates to the API by posting to /iredadmin/login. All is well and I receive the session cookie. Next, I loop through the MariaDB last_login table for users who haven't logged in for more than 365 days.
Within the loop I access /iredadmin/api/user/(username) using delete and remove the associated record from the MariaDB table. All is well. On the second iteration my code hangs when I access /iredadmin/api/user/(username). No error, not even a timeout.
If API throttling is in place, can it be disabled?
Thanks,
Bob
