Hi Ruth, I recently received a whitelisting, but I supplied my server IPs and so the folks at Twitter opened up their acl rate limits based on those I believe (and not account name).
Alex (Twitter API Lead) answered a similar question recently: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_thread/thread/a49bb0385c8e18f/2c4c8329d7b788e9 So, it appears that should you have been approved, you should not be limited from your server IP(s). However, if you didn't supply any IP range info in your original request, I'm not sure Twitter have an 'account-only' rate limit (or whether they guessed your IP from recent connections, etc.). When you hit http://twitter.com/account/rate_limit_status.xml from your server, are you seeing the 'hourly-limit' decrement?
