I somehow do not understand this question.
He wants the white/black lists to run first and then short circuit. So anybody in the whitelist gets a score of -100 and anybody in the blacklist gets a score of +100. This can probably be done with the ShortCircuit plugin and setting the priority of the rules so that they run first. Black lists aren't all that useful for stopping spam. The email addresses are forged in spam. -jeff
