How does SA auto white-list works?

Hi,
I'm using the SA auto white-list feature with MailScanner 4.54.6, and there's
something confusing in the result I'm seeing: a score is added if the address is
white listed. Shouldn't it be subtracted?
Example:
Content analysis details: (7.7 points, 5.0 required)
pts rule name description
---- ---------------------- --------------------------------------------------
1.5 SUBJECT_ENCODED_TWICE Subject: MIME encoded twice
2.2 FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS From: ends in many numbers
1.3 FROM_LOCAL_HEX From: localpart has long hexadecimal sequence
2.6 AWL AWL: From: address is in the auto white-list
As you can see, the total score includes 2.6 points from being white-listed.
Sounds wrong to me, I'll check if this is a bug in SA 3.1.3, any comments are
welcomed.
