That's terrific, Oliver; but, that has _nothing_ to do with my
complaint.

When an email comes in from amazon.com, and spamassassin finds
amazon.com listed in /usr/share/spamassassin/60_whitelist.cf, then
spamassassin gives that email a USER_IN_WHITELIST, which is scored
thusly:

   -100.00

Obviously, it will take alot of other bad spammy things to raise the
score for this email to >= +5.0 ;<
