You have several options.
1) Take off the whitelist and be careful that nothing you send yourself looks like 
spam.
2) Turn on SMTP AUTH - whenever you send yourself something, connect via SMTP AUTH.  
Skip the SpamAssassin checks on AUTH'd connections.
3) Whenever you send yourself something, connect to 127.0.0.1 (assuming you only send 
yourself things from the server.)  Skip SpamAssassin checks on connections from 
127.0.0.1
4) Generate a random string of (say) 50 printable characters.  Configure your mail 
client to have a custom header Anti-Spam-Tag: ASDKJFAKNCEAWJKAWEJKJRAOFJ....  Create a 
custom SpamAssassin rule to give -100 on this header.

Or are there other people @barnestormer.com?
