Issue Fail2Ban blocking whitelisted IP for Apache jail while not blocking it for recidive jail.

[Bitpalast]

PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE
Onyx, 17.07 #12, CentOS 7.3 64-Bit

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
Fail2Ban is blocking whitelisted IPv4 for Apache jail while it is not blocking the same whitelisted IP for recidive jail.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Excessively frequent requests from the IP to the same URL, so that an IP is banned.
Then add the IP to the whitelist of fail2ban and unban it.

ACTUAL RESULT
Whitelisted domain is blocked by Apache jail, not blocked by recidive jail.

EXPECTED RESULT
Whitelisted domain should not be blocked by Apache jail.

ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
In this example pay special attention to 10:56:53 and 10:56:59: While the unbanned, whitelisted address is ignored by the recidive jail, it is banned again by the plesk-apache-k jail.
