What you describe is expected behavior.  That's what the "auto" in
"autowhitelist" means.  Any sender gets automatically added, and has the sum of
the scores of the messages they've sent, plus the number of messages tracked
over time.  The AWL does not work in the same way the regular whitelist works --
it acts as a score adjustment absed on past experience of that sender, and not
just a flat -100 "bonus" to the score.  See the section "Automatic Whitelist
System" of the README file that should have come with the SA distribution -- it
details how the system works.
