Unsure if I asked about this before.
Yes you did on August 17 (or at least I replied on such date). Please search the archives.
Still, what is the process in alpine to whitelist email addresses?
There is no way that a Mail User Agent like alpine does a whitelisting on its input sources (i.e. in most cases IMAP folders), which are filled by a Mail Delivery Agent.
If you'd have full control on your MDA (which is not the case when you are receiving mail on a commercial provider), than you could insert some form of spam filtering like spamassassin or procmail able to whitelist.
If your input IMAP folders are filled by a commercial provider, there is nothing you can do to whitelist. What you could do is accessing the provider spam folder and recover the false positives.
I don't think most commercial providers can be instructed to learn what you tag as no spam (definitely not gmail).
