Spamassassin whitelisting rules: Rule 1. Do not *EVER* use whitelist_from for you domain.. EVER. This is a bad idea because it is easily forged. Even if your MTA rejects forgeries, that only applies to the envelope, where SA's whitelisting will match either the envelope or the From: address Use whitelist_from_rcvd instead. Whitelist_from_rcvd allows you to dictate matching part of a Received: header, and you can use this so that only internal machines will match the whitelist, outside hosts won't. Rule 2. Actually, don't EVER use whitelist_from for anything if you can avoid it. whitelist_from_rcvd or whitelist_from_spf are always better to use when possible. And, as Craig suggested, configuring your MTA to reject forgeries of your domain is a good idea. This will only solve those that forge the envelope from, but this is a large chunk of forged spam and viruses.
