one customer causing smtp spam

one customer causing smtp spam
Guys,

I have one customer causing thousands of smtp request a minute. I had the same user with zpanel and did not have this issue. fresh install of CENTOS 7 and sentora now the customer is getting my server blacklisted.

They use google docs to control their mail so I do not know what my server is being hit for.

I will worry about getting everything off of blacklist as soon as I stop the issue.

Here is output from the maillog

What was hacked? Was it a custom site or was it a CMS (wordpress, moodle, drupal, etc.) site?
