This adds more strangeness, since the whitelists are only used - in
Debian's default config - to exempt delivering hosts from sender
verificatoin and sender callouts. Those are the only places that are
processed in the RCPT ACL before the "relay not permitted" case that
seems to trigger in your case.

Since you chose not to show your configuration or your logs, I cannot
comment any more than "strange. Which is really a pity.
