whitelist_from_rcvd has nothing to do with MX records.  It matches an 
address to a server host name pattern.

If an email domain emits mail from multiple hosts with differing domain 
names you can simply use more than one whitelist_from_rcvd entry...

whitelist_from_rcvd *@domain.com	domain.com
whitelist_from_rcvd *@domain.com	here2.example.com
