Yes it's on localhost:10025

Where/how is it possible to whitelist in MAIA?   I have looked through 
configs but do not see a suitable place

Possibly but it looks like MAIA is the bottle neck in these instances, 
spending too long processing each email.

Looks interesting idea, though good to try MAIA whitelist too.  As the 
public mailhost is multihomed I could have 10025 listen on RFC1918 IP 
Address and then MAIA connect to that.
