Domain xxxxxx.org has exceeded the max emails per hour (100) allowed

I have big problem with LFD. Why lfd is blocking email?

Time: Thu Jan 28 13:40:02 2010 +0100
Type: LOCALRELAY, Local Account - camels
Count: 101 emails relayed
Blocked: No

But i get e-mail return:

Domain xxxxxx.org has exceeded the max emails per hour (100) allowed. Message discarded.

Why this is blocking? I want to send as much as I can and get only information about mass mailing.

Server Configuration -> Tweak Settings -> The maximum each domain can send out per hour (0 is unlimited)

Set this to 0?
And how this option is conected with LFD options:

RT_RELAY_ALERT  =  Default: 1
RT_RELAY_LIMIT = Default: 100
RT_RELAY_BLOCK = Default: 0
# This option triggers for email authenticated by SMTP AUTH
RT_AUTHRELAY_ALERT = Default: 1
RT_AUTHRELAY_LIMIT = Default: 100
RT_AUTHRELAY_BLOCK = Default: 0
# This option triggers for email authenticated by POP before SMTP
RT_POPRELAY_ALERT = Default: 1
RT_POPRELAY_LIMIT = Default: 100
RT_POPRELAY_BLOCK = Default: 0
# This option triggers for email sent via /usr/sbin/sendmail or /usr/sbin/exim
RT_LOCALRELAY_ALERT = Default: 1
RT_LOCALRELAY_LIMIT = Default: 100
# This option triggers for email sent via a local IP addresses
RT_LOCALHOSTRELAY_ALERT = Default: 1
RT_LOCALHOSTRELAY_LIMIT = Default: 100

Hello,

Across almost all of our servers, we've ran into an issue where suddenly, emails are bounced back when the customer hasn't completely reached the maximum emails per hour limit. Below is an example of that. Throughout the day (from 1 PM to 5 PM or so), ~1000 emails are sent out per hour. 2000 is the limit on the server. However, even though this goes through fine for most of the hours, during 3 PM, at 3:37 PM, it starts giving back the 2000 emails per hour error (as described below) until 4:00 PM. Is there a file that governs over this? If so, which file is it?

this used to be working fine until the latest cPanel update to 11.25 in December so I'm wondering if its related to any changes made then.
