We use exim as a MTA. But our legit e-mail get tagged as spam. So I
wanted to dump our frequent e-mailers and pump into MySql so they can get

specified are still getting tagged.
12k whitelisted names?!
I would suggest that whitelisting is not the solution you want to be
pursuing quite yet. Do you understand _why_ so many of your legitimate
correspondents' messages are being scored as "spammy" by SA?
Would it be possible to post a few representative messages (raw format,
all headers intact) to a website somewhere so that we can get some idea of
whether or not the spammy scores are reasonable?
Also, be aware that whitelist_from is a last resort as the From: address
is trivially easy to forge.
I am still new to SA and Exim. I hope this answer your question , and I
do appreciate your response/help .
Well, _I_ can't personally help you with exim, but somebody else may if
MTA whitelisting turns out to be an appropriate course of action.
