You use check_client_access because your table contains a
client IP. If your table contained the actual bad HELO name
you could use check_helo_access, but generally it's better to
whitelist by client address.

If you feel you've gotten conflicting answers, it's only
because you keep changing the question.

(Way past) Time to post "postconf -n" and the actual log entry
of what you are trying to allow.
