White list issue

I've only seen this behavior when the whitelisting "hits" a rule that
you're not seeing, even though it's there - such as IP address, for example.

Also, when a message is sent TO: a whitelisted user, everybody else in the
message gets it.

Example:

From: spammer at douchebag.com
To: johndoe at victim.com (whitelisted)
CC: Spamhater at victim.com (not whitelisted)

Unless you "split messages per recipient" (something that depends on your
MTA), since To: johndoe at victim.com is whitelisted or since
From:spammer at douchebag.com and To:johndoe at victim.com is whitelisted or
From: douchebag.com and To: (you get the picture) spamhater@ gets a copy.
