We don't host any of the domains involved. Our rcpthosts file only contains domains that we do host. Our whitelist has 127.0.0.1/32 and 65.x.x.x/32 so shouldn't 71.13.77.50 be rejected? What else can I check. Our system Overview shows the following for versions:

OS Linux 2.6.18-194.el5
Panel version 10.4.4 Update #57, last updated at Oct 26, 2013 04:06 AM

The system is up-to-date; last checked at Jan 4, 2014 04:03 AM

Thanks so much for any help you can give!

Thanks. It was an account that a spammer had figured out the password. The reason it was hard to find was that the window to open after authenticating was 20 minutes. With a window that large there were hundreds of accounts connecting in. I dropped it to 1 minute and was able to figure it out. Thanks for the help.
