How can I fix that problem ? Don't use whitelist_from for addresses at your domain. whitelist_from_rcvd is safer. Even better, analyse why you have to whitelist that sender, and solve the issue in a better way.

How can I fix that problem ? do not *EVER* use whitelist_from for ANYTHING, except as an absolute last resort. whitelist_from offers absolutely no protection against forgery, and is particularly dangerous to use for whitelisting your own domain, use whitelist_from_rcvd instead. This takes two parameters, the second of which checks the reverse DNS lookup of the MTA delivering the mail to your server.
