Our white list is supposed to be a source of pure good email. So if spam comes for any of the white listed IPs then it's an error.

Whose? Yours or theirs?

Meaning: is a single spam reason for an IP to be dropped from the hostkarma whitelist?

It depends on what kind of spam it is. If it is a virus generated spam - then yes. If it's a spam determined by message content - no.


  Sorry if I missed this in the thread, but how do you determine

A combination of several factors including hitting my tarbaby server AND not using QUIT to close the connection AND some HELO sins. I'm catching near 100% of botnet spam.
