Have the SMTP limits obey the whitelist. Why: Well, we have a large organization we exchange large amounts of mail with. For whatever reason, their "Symantec Mail Security Gateway" POS trips the max errors and ends up blocking their mail for the expiration period. This ended up in an endless loop because by the time the expiration happened, they had so much mail queued up that it tripped the limits again. This happened while I was off Friday, so when people discovered that mail that was sent in the early am still wasn't getting through in the late afternoon, shit hit the fan. I have added their server IP into the appropriate areas to avoid this, but was thinking it would be nice to have that happen automatically if the domain or ip is already in the associated whitelists.
Having it obey the ipwl is obviously strait forward. I was thinking to make things even better, it could check to see if the ip matches the domain name listed in the whitedomains file, and if so, add that IP to the list of a smtpwhiteip's file. That would probably have to tie into the sender validation section because of the required lookup, but would be worth it IMO.
