Thats not an AWL, thats just a regular wihtelist.
Do spamassassin --lint 
to make sure there are no errors.  Make sure the target user
does not have private spamassassin cf files.

I have some AWL's listed in my local.cf.
You do? That's not likely true..
In my local.cf I have the line"whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Does this not keep all messages coming from our domain clear from being 
marked as spam?

AWL has nothing to do with "whitelist_from" statements and the like. You 
can't create AWL entries in your local.cf.

the AWL is the AUTOMATIC whitelist. It's just that.. automatic. You don't 
manually declare what's whitelisted and not. It tracks history and averages 
scores.

However they are getting a postative score of 25 points and being marked 
as spam.
Hmm, did that sender send a high-scoring spam in the past?
use spamassassin --remove-addr-from-whitelist to clear their record.

Shouldn't it be scoring the message with a negative score so it doesn't 
get marked as spam?
No. The AWL is a score averager.. it's both a whitelist and a blacklist.
