I encountered that misconception so much that I altered its description it in my local.cf: describe AWL Adjust score towards average for this sender As a reminder, SVN trunk uses: describe AWL From: address is in the auto white-list Even if we don't change what "AWL" means, we don't need to spell it out as often. Cleaning up the docs would certainly be useful, but simply changing the description would cover most of the ground for us.
