Generally, using 'whitelist_from' is a bad idea due to spoofing. The
address you are using will probably not cause too many problems, but you
should still fix it if possible. Use 'whitelist_from_rcvd' instead.
This will whitelist the address only if the mail comes from a specified
domain.
Try this (untested):
whitelist_from_rcvd logwatch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx localhost.localdomain
Note that this will require your DNS server to resolve
localhost.localdomain (forward and reverse).
Another option is to configure your mail server to bypass SA entirely
for local mail.
