After some checking, looks like the generic 'Accept Spam From' is not a
solution for me, since the main mail server of our domain (the one receiving
the mail xxx at polito.it and delivering to my subnet) was included in 'Accept
Spam From', so all the incoming mail were marked as whitelisted.

Back to the restricted 'Accept Spam From'.

Maurizio
