if I put in the firewall a rule

incoming deny 91.200.0.0/16 --> this block all the ips 91.200.0.1--> 91.200.254.254 ???
 
Do not block IPs manually, because spammers and viruses can and will use any IP.

Instead, use Fail2Ban (Tools & Settings > Security). It analyzes your log files and will block IPs dynamically that behave badly, including SMTP and POP/IMAP attacks as shown in your log.
 
Good morning.
OK I go to find Fail2ban and install. But I not see sys.log
