Do you filter on the same header that you build the white-list from?

Ie I forge all of my mail, it's really coming from ABack at ex.ac.uk; but
I want replies to adam at cypherspace.org.

I've encountered other "subscribers only" situations where my mail
gets bounced because they look too deeply at the headers and see the
received line or Sender so something is ABack at ex.ac.uk and block it
even though the From line is adam at cypherspace.org, and I subscribed as
adam at cypherspace.org
