To which variable (lookup table) are you reading the whitelist_sender file?

The sender was soft-whitelisted. Soft-w/b-listing does not prevent
SA from being called, it just adds score points to the SA result.
If you need hard white or blacklisting, you must use @whitelist_sender_maps,
not @score_sender_maps.
But, hard whitelisting is a bad idea, because sender address is usually
faked with spam. It is better to use soft-whitelisting as you did,
but don't assume it will avoid calling SA. Btw, you may explicitly assign
the number of score points to be added instead of the default of 1,
when reading a hash by read_hash() - just include a score boost
separated by whitespace from the address. E.g.:
@score_sender_maps = ({
# site-wide opinions about senders (the '.' matches any recipient)
'.' => [ read_hash("/var/amavis/sender_scores_sitewide") ],
});
