By "manual whitelist" do you mean you have an entry in your
~/.spamassassin/user_prefs or /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf that
says

  whitelist_from <the from address>

If so, such an entry should subtract 100 points from the total score.
It appears that whatever you put in the whitelist_from is not matching
what's in the From: line.

Could you show your whitelist_from line and a sample header of the
subject email?

Cheers,
