You would want to use "whitelist_from" instead.
No you don't. In general you want whitelist_to. Unfortunately this doesn't work for messages bcc'ed to the list. It also won't work for posts that are still sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] However, generally speaking that should work, although whitelist_to is a bit on the weak side.

Agreed, but the list isn't the message sender. It's the message recipient and resender (in the envelope) Your whitelist_from_rcvd rule probably works for you because the Return-Path: header is used as a From in some cases, but this won't work for in setups where the envelope sender isn't visible to SA. It is definitely worth a shot, and more secure than whitelist_to, but whitelist_to should work.
