No no. No no no. No nononono! I don't. And the only reason I don't is
that initially the comments that came out with the spam messages somewhat
confused me, "Learn to auto WHITE list spam, will you?" I turned it off
with great haste. Later the Wiki corrected my misconception. However, the
episode forced me to think about the implications of autowhitelist; and I
decided to leave it off along with autolearn. They are a double eended
sword. They cut the target and the holder of the sword about equally.
Since I made that decision mostly on intuition I have decided I very
probably made a good decision, especially in as much as I use manual
white listing and blacklisting quite often. (I'm about to pull paypal
and ebay off the white list and simply write rules with sane values
and more imaginative complexitivity for them.)

De nada.
{^_-} (Since moving from looking South on one Ontario that is well North
and East of the one I now look South upon I've picked up an even
funnier accent.)
