They you can't use whitelist_from_rcvd, and the sender needs to fix
their rDNS!

No.

If they are adamant that they can't fix rDNS, I usually ask for an SPF
record, and then do a whitelist_from_spf.  When they claim that they can
fix neither rDNS or set their SPF record, I might use amavisd-new's
soft-whitelisting to trim a couple of points, or I tell them to pound
sand.  Usually I can convince people to fix one or the other.
