Maybe not necessary, but, unless your mailserver is horribly slow,
it'll be done so quick that it's not going to hurt anything anyhow.

That was my first thought, but, if you look at the headers of this
message, you will see
From: Dave Sherohman <esper@sherohman.org>
Although I haven't tested it, I would not expect spamassassin to
start checking other headers to see if they match whitelist_from
directives.
Also, even if this works, it does not prevent spamassassin from
scanning the message, which is what Sandip appears to want.
Whitelisting someone just causes sa to subtract 100 from the score of
their messages.
