Interesting. use_auto_whitelist used to be an admin-only option (valid
only in local.cf). But I guess if the admin wants to make sure no users
can turn it on, then they can comment out the loadplugin.
It probably changed when AWL became a plugin. Our setup allows the
end user to choose whether they want to use the option or not through
SquirrelMail. The default set up in local.cf has the option turned off.
Yes, the fact that it probably changed during the plugin conversion was
part of what I was implying.
I could be wrong on this. Looking back at the docs for 2.6x, 3.0.x and
3.1.x, the use_auto_whitelist option is not listed under the
administrator settings section. Therefore, I would have thought it
would have been allowed under user_prefs.
You need to look closer :)
2.6x didn't have the option, it was a command-line parameter.
3.0.x did have the option, and it was an administrator setting:

By the time 3.1.0 was released, the AWL was already pluginized, so it,
and all versions after, have behaved the same.
Thanks for the clarification.
