Postwhite handles CIDR and individual IP addresses, and formats them
properly for Postscreen.

You're right -- Gmail (and others) change their IP addresses often... so
I'm going to guess you didn't make it to the part of the article that says
"I also recommend creating a cron job to refresh your whitelist with
updated queries every week." Actually, Postwhite is lightweight enough to
be run daily (or even multiple times per day) to update your Postscreen
whitelist, if you're concerned with super-freshness.

If the blog post was too much reading, just skip right to the GitHub
project for it: https://github.com/stevejenkins/postwhite

What you're asking for doesn't exist currently in Postscreen, and it's not
likely it will any time soon (if ever). Your best approach is to combine
dnswl whitelisting with Postwhite. It's literally a 5 minute job that will
"make life much much easier." :)
