Neither, just unnecessary. Think of the problem you're trying to resolve, current whitelist practice is to manually add your correspondences address to the whitelist, another solution would suggest exporting your address book (not available and requires an update for each new address) or making your correspondent perform handsprings to be added to the whitelist. How about sending your mail via daemon that authenticates your connection against authentication used for whitelist access (just like authenticated SMTP)? After updating the list (where necessary) the message could be relayed to the SMTP server. New addresses can be added to the whitelist saving your correspondences completing the verification task? The advantage is that you use the recipient address twice, once to direct the message and once to update your whitelist.
