NAME
       Mail::SpamAssassin::AutoWhitelist - auto-whitelist handler for
       SpamAssassin

SYNOPSIS
         (see Mail::SpamAssassin)

DESCRIPTION
       Mail::SpamAssassin is a module to identify spam using text analysis and
       several internet-based realtime blacklists.

       This class is used internally by SpamAssassin to manage the automatic
       whitelisting functionality.  Please refer to the "Mail::SpamAssassin"
       documentation for public interfaces.

METHODS
       $meanscore = awl->check_address($addr, $originating_ip, $signedby);
           This method will return the mean score of all messages associated
           with the given address, or undef if the address hasn't been seen
           before.

           If $originating_ip is supplied, it will be used in the lookup.

       awl->count();
           This method will return the count of messages used in determining
           the whitelist correction.

       awl->add_score($score);
           This method will add half the score to the current entry.  Half the
           score is used, so that repeated use of the same From and IP address
           combination will gradually reduce the score.

       awl->add_known_good_address($addr);
           This method will add a score of -100 to the given address --
           effectively "bootstrapping" the address as being one that should be
           whitelisted.

       awl->add_known_bad_address($addr);
           This method will add a score of 100 to the given address --
           effectively "bootstrapping" the address as being one that should be
           blacklisted.
