IgnoreMailFrom is based on the visible From: - which would be very much the 
wrong thing - I think?

More generally, I don’t think you should ever whitelist domains that are 
requesting p=reject. If you’re going to comply with p=reject requests, comply 
with them from every source. That will, briefly, cause problems for mailing 
list operators, but only until they put the (fairly well understood) fixes for 
that in place. Ad-hoc whitelisting of IP addresses is a band-aid that won’t 
help much, and a horrible security hole, and a management nightmare.

Cheers,
 Steve
