but what the correct value for client limit in service auth { client_limit=6000 } and service anvil { client_limit=6000 }
Timo already replied that yours should be fine, but I'd just add...
You can now use doveconf -d to see what the default values for any setting should be (thanks for adding that Timo!)... and the default values for both of these are 0.
Two lessons I learned a long time ago when I first installed and started using postfix:
never change a default value/setting without a very good reason
never just randomly start changing values of settings in an attempt to fix a problem unless you understand precisely what these changes do
So, either you changed them, or the CentOS package that you used changed them (most likely), which is one reason (among many others) that I would never use such systems for mission critical applications.
I think Timo, like Wietse (postfix's author) does his best to set sane default values which should not be changed without a good reason.
