AutoWhite was designed with the premise that if you send many messages to joe@example.com, any message from joe@example.com is most likely not to be spam. The more e-mail you send to him, the less likely it will not be spam from him on a graduating basis.
When you send a e-mail to someone, AutoWhite will add that e-mail address if not already recorded, and if recorded will add to the count it keeps of how many times you have sent to that e-mail address. Example, if you have sent joe@example.com 10 e-mails, it will have recorded 9. (First one is not counted as it is the original recording.)
As e-mail is received, AutoWhite checks its files to see if the from address is recorded. If so, it will return the number of times it has recorded that you sent a message to that address to Declude, which will then add a negative weight to the message according to that number and how you have set it up the test definitions. Using the above example, if you receive a message from joe@example.com, AutoWhite will return a code 9 to Declude, which according to the recommended configuration will add a negative weight of 5 to the message. If the return number is say 11, it would add a negative weight of 20 to the message.
