Thats a good idea, but would this work on a system where each user has
their own auto-whitelist?

Seems like on the users ham, forget and spam would have their
auto-whitelists updated.  Although I guess I could just use the spam,ham
and forget accounts to hold the mail and run a cron job every so often to
execute sa-learn for the users.

Still Im open for a better solution.
