They are, in 60_shortcircuit.cf.

IFF you enable the optional Shortcircuit plugin. I guess it is disabled
by default, because it results in quite some different behavior.

I did not say "always", neither did I imply it. However, with stuff like
mailing lists, it is a good choice and frequently advised on this list.

As per the documentation, the whitelist options in SA are "Used to
whitelist [...] mail that is often tagged (incorrectly) as spam." Which
is not the same as a mailing list.
