No, if I am not mistaken there is one specific received header that is
looked at to determine whether there is a match or not. This is the first
header past what spamassassin trusts. This is why I asked to see the
headers.

  received from (trusted IP) # (trusted or internal I think)
  received from (trusted IP)
  received from (not trusted IP) < - this one
  received from (not trusted IP)
  received from (not trusted IP)

Which header this is is determined by the trust path. The trust path
must be set up correctly for this to work correctly.

In this particular header, the sender and the rDNS of the relay host
must (at least partially) match the the sender and host in
whitelist_from_rcvd.

The function works when it is set up correctly.
