What effect do whitelist entries have on autolearning and scores? In other words, my whitelist_from_rcvd entries add -100 to the score, which would be way beyond the -3 I have required for autolearn. I asked this question some years ago, but thought it was worthwhile to involve this factor again, and just make sure my understanding was correct. Thanks, Alex
