Sure, but how would you reliably whitelist them? We got information
directly from a Google lackey that this list may change at any time
because of their way to deploy servers, and I have not heard of a way to
dynamically whitelist all SPF-allowed MXs in, let's say, postgrey. You
can whitelist sender, recipients or client - now, whitelisting a sender
domain is not helpful because any domain might be Google hosted. There
is, in fact, no reliable lsit of *all* mail hosts that will ever (as in,
for a long time in the future) be the sending MTAs of Google-hosted
domains.
