When you pasted the logged line that said 60.1/1h, that was created
from the above line, right?

Because it should have matched this one too. Did you see two lines
logged with 60.1?

As to why connection #51 (in the same hour) didn't match this one, I'm
not sure. Can you look at the config file with a hex editor and make
sure that there are no strange non-ascii characters in it? I really
doubt it, but it eliminates one possibility.

I also would think you want to match the more exact rules first,
reversing the order. But I don't use exim's built in ratelimit, I use
a system that I wrote utilizing memcache, so I'm just guessing.
Hopefully someone with ratelimit experience can chime in with more
authoritative answers.
