"IP blocks" does not matter and if you whitelist BLOCKS
you are making a major mistake - there are way to much
single addresses with static IP and a mailserver where
the other IPs in the address-block are totally different
customers of the ISP owning the netblock

so you should only whitelist single addresses

a spamfilter usually does not relay
if you have a managed network outgoing mails are usually not spam
so the spamfilter-appliance is a dedicated IP and receives
incoming mail from the internet, realy it after scan to the
mailserver and the mailserver itself relays directly
