postfix 2.9.20111119 warns me:
unused parameter: smtpd_client_connection_limit_exceptions
Yet if I remove this option from master.cf, I soon reach the connection

421-4.7.0 mail.ijs.si Error: too many connections from ::1
451 4.5.0 Contact postmas...@ijs.si for assistance.
Also I don't see the "smtpd_client_connection_limit_exceptions"
in the postconf(5) man page, yet it shows in the source (mail_params.h):
#define DEF_SMTPD_HOGGERS
"${smtpd_client_connection_limit_exceptions:$" VAR_MYNETWORKS "}"
What am I missing?
10025 inet n - n - - smtpd

-o mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8,[::1]

Not much ;)
This is probably old code, since postconf(5) says:
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_client_event_limit_exceptions
*smtpd_client_event_limit_exceptions(default: $mynetworks
<postconf.5.html#mynetworks>)*
Clients that are excluded from smtpd_client_*_count/rate_limit
restrictions.
You've apparently found the old setting; the above is the new (current)
version.
Configuration parameters get renamed from time to time when a better
description for added or changed behaviour applies.
The old ones tend to hang around for several versions to avoid breaking
existing configurations.
