what exactly you mean by whitelisting?

whitelisting at postfix level can skip checking for various blacklists,
avoid feeding the mail to amavis
(often can't be applied to sender address or sender domain)

whitelisting at amavis level can skip checking for spamminess, virus
scanning etc

whitelisting at spamassassin level can avoid tagging mail as spam.

note that when you whitelist sending domain at postfix or amavis level, you
can cause mail with fake address not being scanned, which may be dangerous
