Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that whitelisting my IP had anything to do with the HELO. And, yes, we do block spoofing at the router. At least one or two people in the past, however, have seemed to have problems with spam attacks that were resolved by removing their own IP's from whitelists.
There should not be any real reason to whitelist your mail server anyway, however. Unless you have some type of web service on the same machine that is sending out malformed emails that the server needs to skip when processing for spam?
