How clamav-milter would handle an external file is also a concern.
Would it read it only upon start up, or reread it whenever it is
modified? The latter method would eliminate the need to restart the
milter if the file is modified making system management easier. Perhaps
having it reread the file a preset interval like clamd does with it's
definition files would be acceptable.

That would not be the unix way. The unix way is to read config files on
startup and on HUP or USR. However signaling in the milter is
problematic because libmilter does its own signal catching; that's
braindead, if you ask me, but that's the way it is.

The sendmail way would be to add these whitelist entries into the access database. This method would only require re-hashing the berkeley database.
