I got (slightly) bitten by the same thing as the original poster:
sending some captured spam through spamassassin -t multiple times
eventually put the spammer's address on my auto-whitelist. Oops, delete
auto-whitelist and start over. This doesn't mean the notion of
auto-whitelisting is wrong, it's just a minor implementation oversight.
I think his suggestion was right on: don't update the auto-whitelist in
testing mode.
