We have Max hourly emails per domain is 100 then how it bypassed? and thousands of mail become in queue? How to prevent such things in future? what steps to be taken? SMTP Authentication as USER@Domain.com[/EMAIL] id. but from id is something different like info@xyz.com which xyz.com is not hosted on our server.

  Go through below docs. How to Prevent Email Abuse - cPanel Knowledge Base - cPanel Documentation Make sure you have strong passwords for email IDs and your cpanel account.

  Hello, Can you provide an example of one of the messages as it appears in /var/log/exim_mainlog? EX:
  exigrep MSGID /var/log/exim_mainlog
  Replace "MSGID" with the message ID as found in the header of one of the messages, or replace it with the name of the email account used to send email. Thank you.
