SUMMARY: I'm in a worse spot than I thought.  I don't seem to be able to
remove any address from the whitelist.  I don't remove addresses
frequently.  I don't know how long this has been an issue.  *I'm concerned
that a verify in the list GUI shows different results that the address GUI
and that I can't remove addresses at all it seems.*  What could I have
misconfigured? What could I be doing wrong?

I've been using the lists GUI forever, long before the address icon became
an option.  I like that the lists feature shows personal lists and that I
can do things in bulk.  I also go there for tuplets.  But your suggestion
is a good one, check somewhere else.  I entered that address into the
address GUI, and incredibly, the only whitelist option is to add.  I assume
that if the address GUI has ADD to Whitelist, that it doesn't think an
address is whitelisted.    I don't know if that's looking at the personal
whitelists too.

If I enter the same thing in the lists screen, it still shows
scam...@gmail.com Whitelisted
scam...@gmail.com,@OurCharity.org personal Whitelisted
scam...@gmail.com,oneu...@ourcharity.org personal not Whitelisted
So there's conflicting information as far as I understand it.  And I don't
know what to do to fix this and figure out why it's happening.

Just to see if this would fix it, from the address window, I added to
whitelist.  Then I removed from whitelist from there.  I went back to the
lists window and did a verify.  Unfortunately, there's no change, it still
shows the 3 lines above.

I've never experienced *anything* like with with ASSP before.  To test
further, I found another whitelisted address (this one was legitimate).  I
tried simply entering

otheraddr...@outsidesender.org (I also tried with
otheraddr...@outsidesender.org,* based on the gui instructions)

I selected whitelist and remove and hit submit.
I get a message:

*otheraddr...@outsidesender.org <otheraddr...@outsidesender.org> removed
from Whitelist*

as I would expect.

However, doing a verify still shows
otheraddr...@outsidesender.org <scam...@gmail.com>, Whitelisted
otheraddr...@outsidesender.org <scam...@gmail.com>,@OurCharity.org personal
Whitelisted
otheraddr...@outsidesender.org <scam...@gmail.com>,us...@ourcharity.org
personal Whitelisted
otheraddr...@outsidesender.org <scam...@gmail.com>,us...@ourcharity.org
personal Whitelisted

The lists GUI says:
To add global whitelist entries use emailaddress .
To remove or delete global whitelist entries use emailaddress,* .
To add, remove or delete domain whitelist entries use emailaddress,@domain .

I usually only use the email address, not emailaddress,* to remove from
all.  Have I been using the wrong removal syntax since the introduction of
the personal whitelists all those years ago????   Maybe so and I never
noticed because the gui seems to say I was successful on submit.  Verify
says otherwise.
