Take a look at the header of any gmail message and you will see it was received from "some letter"proxy.gmail.com. This represents a pool of ip addreses, more exactly, a block of 16 ips. There is more than just one block. So this is what I added to my white list:
64.233.162.192/28 # zproxy gmail 64.233.170.192/28 # rproxy gmail 64.233.182.192/28 # nproxy gmail 64.233.183.192/28 # nproxy gmail 64.233.184.192/28 # wproxy gmail 66.249.82.192/28 # xproxy gmail 66.249.92.192/28 # uproxy gmail 216.239.56.240/28 # mproxy gmail As you can see there are two nproxy. "dig nproxy.gmail.com" reports just the first one, so keep your eyes on the spamd's log file... They may add new ones (xproxy and uproxy were added recently).
