In fact, it's more than just lazy -- it's righteous indignation because the person asks you for a favour but to be able to reply to him you have to jump through the hoops... This is just stupid. There *is*, BTW, a simple solution for this: just always add anyone you've ever written to to the whitelist. I'd like to see this and it could be useful in the other situations as well: for example, the heuristic spam filters should never be applied (nor ever match!) any messages coming from people in your whitelist.

Anyhow, I don't really want to prevent you from working on this -- far from it. Just saying that you might find it a hard sell later. Of course, if you're mainly interested in this for your personal use it doesn't matter.
