Postgrey does, indeed have a control. Postgrey comes with two 
whitelists. One is a list of users that you never want greylisted (the 
default file has [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] in it) and the other 
is a list 
of senders that need special handling. Google's mail farm is one such 
instance that appears in the default file.

Yes. And it's easy to disable at any time, should we need to.
