This sounds like a specific case of a feature I requested several months ago. 
On the outgoing filter, there is a "bare=append" action which says that the
recipient of a message meeting certain criteria recieves the e-mail unaltered
and is added to the whitelist.  This is most generally used to auto-whitelist
anyone you address e-mail to.

My request was for an incoming filter rule, say "ok=append", which does the same
thing for an incoming message.  Meeting certain criteria, the sender is
auto-whitelisted and the message passes.  It becomes just another action in
your incoming filter, albeit the only one which affects the list files.

It's not implemented yet, but it's on the TODO list for the 1.1 versions.  Is
this something like what you're after?
