why the limit is 300 and it's sent 206124?
The username account has just finished sending 300 emails.
There could be a spammer, the account could be compromised, or just sending more emails than usual.

After some processing of the /etc/virtual/usage/username.bytes file, it was found that the highest sender was [email protected], at 206124 emails.

The top authenticated user was [email protected], at 206124 emails.
This accounts for 68708% of the emails. The higher the value, the more likely this is the source of the emails.
An authenticated username is the user and password value used at smtp time to authenticate with exim for delivery.

The top sending host was 14.222.60.91, at 27998 emails (9332%).

The most common path that the messages were sent from is /, at 206124 emails (68708%).
The path value may only be of use if it's pointing to that of a User's home directory.
If the path is a system path, it likely means the email was sent through smtp rather than using a script.

Cause the check is made at night, you can set the cron to run more often in the day to prevent those high number.

I dont actually remember the help link for change this, but you can find it with a search in this forum.

What version is your exim.pl currently? With the versions after (I believe) .14, the checks are made for each e-mail and so e-mails sent out after the cap are rejected. My immediate thought on this would be to update your exim.conf and exim.pl to the latest versions.
