applied, with some followups:
* use built-in time() to get seconds since epoch
* sleep a bit, especially more on the rate limit cases
* code consitency

one thing which feels a bit "flawed" is the fact that if one knows or guesses
correctly a valid domain, the can DOS this requester for all other valid ones by
simply looping and sending a request for "$name++@$domain" where $name gets changed
slightly each round - this way others race with them to get in between the small
timeframe where the mtime is old enough again and the "attacker" gets through a
request again.

But, this can be somewhat solved by fail2ban and it's opt-in anyway.
