Add anti-spam to invite/add emails
Add anti-spam to invite/add emails
Mandrill recently paused our email sending because someone was abusing our invites for spam, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitter/webapp/issues/2153
Plan
-
Add rate-limit to allow users to send 10 invites a day without any intervention -
After 10, we show a recaptcha for every invite
Afterwards
-
Re-enable invite/add emails, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitter/webapp/merge_requests/1416 - Already allowing 10 per day, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitter/webapp/merge_requests/1433
Number of people running into our disabled invites, https://sentry.gitlab.net/gitlab/gitter-backend/issues/799126
