It can work both ways.

Each user has their own filter file (e.g. ~/.tmda/filters/incoming).
This filter file can process as many or as few whitelists as you want,
e.g. by:

from-file /path/to/some/global_whitelist accept
from-file ~/.tmda/lists/confirmed accept

These whitelists could be generated by any means (text editor, custom
script, or TMDA can manage the file).

TMDA can automatically manage whitelists, e.g. by adding all users who
respond to confirmation requests. There are a number of variables that
tell TMDA whether to do this, and if so, what filename to write to, e.g.:

http://www.tmda.net/config-vars.html#CONFIRM_APPEND

These variables can be configured in the global config file (e.g.
/etc/tmdarc) or the user's individual config file (e.g. ~/.tmda/config)
