Just a thought, remember that SpamAssassin has its own whitelisting system that is
separate from MailScanner's.  I think most of us turn it off (at least the
autowhitelisting feature) with the following in MailScanner.conf.

# Set this option to "yes" to enable the automatic whitelisting functions

# get real mail, to be marked so that it will never incorrectly spam-tag
# messages from those addresses.
SpamAssassin Auto Whitelist = no
