Not that I know of. Right now the AWL is an all-or-nothing proposition. I'd suggested the addition of awl_ignore_from and awl_ignore_to in the midst of discussing a slightly unrelated enhancement request: http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3418 However, I think those might be better placed as a separate enhancement request. It would be a good mirror of bayes_ignore_from and bayes_ignore_to.
