If you can't get whitelist_from_rcvd working, you might want to check if you have any spam messages hitting the ALL_TRUSTED rule. (And make sure whatever you do, that you do not have "score ALL_TRUSTED 0" in your spam.assassin.prefs.conf, as per some MailScanner versions did by default) You might have trust path issues. If your inbound MX mailserver is behind some kind NAT, you are 100% certain to need to declare trusted_networks manually in your /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf. The autodetect algorithm always fails for NATed mailservers. If the trust path is broken, whitelist_from_rcvd won't work correctly, as SA will be looking at the wrong Received: headers.
