I'm trying to get the following line to work in my user_prefs file:

whitelist_from_rcvd*bankofamerica.com
<http://bankofamerica.com/>bankofamerica.com
<http://bankofamerica.com/>

Of course, this works:

whitelist_from*bankofamerica.com <http://bankofamerica.com/>

So, the simple whitelist_from works, but the whitelist_from_rcvd
does not work.  Why is this?  Looks like I have some kind of RDNS
problem,  I run this command to test this premise:

helo=ealerts.bankofamerica.com by=box458.bluehost.com
bankofamerica.com != bluehost.com

The by=box458.bluehost.com is not relevant, the problem is the
"rdn= ".

SpamAssassin doesn't do its own rdns lookups, so if the information
isn't recorded in the received header by the server you can't use
whitelist_from_rcvd

agreed in conext of rdns, but even if it is resolved, the machines sending as @ealerts.bankofamerica.com don't have a RDNS ending with "bankofamerica.com"

"whitelist_from_rcvd" is not really maintainable for 3rd party senders which may change their network and cloudservices at any point of time while "whitelist_auth" is agnostic to that as long as the domain-owner takes care in his SPF-records
