If you use only one postgrey instance, the postgrey integrated whitelist is
automatically centralized. This is the case for autowhite list and the
manual maintained lists.

If you plan to greylist only suspicious systems (as I do), it is necessary
to use an appropriate ACL in exim to messuare who suspicious the sending
system is. But this is not like a whitelist and most installation does not
care about this anyway (just greylisting all systems except whitelist or
auto-whitelist).

The auto-whitelist feature of postgrey prevents most non-SPAM mails from
the greylist delay after running postgrey for a while. Don't underestimate
this feature!
