  SpamCop allows you to whitelist Senders, not Recipients. That's why I set
  my SpamCop user to pass on the messages as they are received, but with an
  added header line that inidcates SpamCop/SpamAssassin's findings.

  And that's why I created my own system - nowadays I use external anti-spam
  services nominatively; I don't allow them to decide whether a message is 
  spam, but rather as indicators that "yes, this is very likely a spam". For
  example - a message that is blocked in SpamCop will be receiving a *very*
  high spam score (just some points under some preset threshold) - and then,
  if my system finds chickenpoxes like "v1agr@" in there, the spam score will
  certainly exceed the Spam Score Threshold - and it's a spam. This system 
  fails very, very rarely.

  That's how I do it, too.
