How do you maintain the contents of the /etc/mail/spamd-white file?
As in, do you have a cron job or similar that dumps the contents of the
table there?
If you have a set of hosts or networks that you want to not subject to
spamd's gentle treatments, I suspect what you really want is to maintain
a static-ish nospamd, see the spamd man page (and for that matter a not
yet totally outdated article of mine,

All the best,
