That sounds like blocking that would be better done outside of
SpamAssassin.

If you are rejecting mail, you're better off doing it during the SMTP
session.

You might use the whitelist to seed a system that created user-editable
lists for your MTA, that makes sense.


And there is a per-user whitelist that works for users without logins -
the sql system apparently works fine for lots of folks, though I haven't
used it.
