I tend to agree that white-listing is usually not the best solution.... But please consider this case: one of our users tries to relay mail through our servers and is originating from a Dial-up IP address with very bad reputation (maybe within "truncate") but is correctly authenticated. Would you agree that such mails should not be marked as spam or even discarded (at least not based on IP address reputation)? > SNFMilter is distributed as source code so you certainly could code this > modification yourself if you need it for your system, or you might use a > different milter to force acceptance of messages that you've whitelisted > either by list or by behavior.

This is what we do. But we receive quite many false positives alerts from our users, and it is a time consuming task to report all the false-positives. Very often we are not sure, whether these false positiv reports improve filter quality...
