Don't put yourself in your whitelist :)

Actually, this raises an interesting issue with AWLs where it'll have no way
of knowing you're you and not someone else with whom you regularly
correspond, which is probably bad, because as you point out, the spammer can
easily say the mail is from you.  He's much much less likely to guess
someone else who happens to be on your list.

On the other hand, I don't know about you, but when I get something claiming
to be from me in my inbox, with a subject I didn't send out, then I get
suspicious even if the subject doesn't start with "****SPAM****"
