Instead of whitelisting your domain names, or even specific e-mail
addresses, why not whitelist your own address space?

        WHITELIST IP xxx.xxx.xxx.0/24

Otherwise anyone can send an e-mail message with a from address of one of
you e-mail domains and it will get delivered.  If you whitelist the IP
addresses, only e-mail messages from your IP addresses will bypass the spam
tests and get delivered.

I'm whitelisting the domain since my IT department has several internal use 
addresses whose messages are generated by databases or applications and 
which were triggering spam tests (usually Badheaders or Spamheaders, which 
would just generate a warning without the Spam subject, but that was enough 
for the messages appear darned unprofessional to the recipient).

I'll probably change the whitelist to include specific addresses instead of 
the entire domain.

Thx,
D.
