It's to your benefit to add to both your white list and black list, based upon your experience with the email you receive.
For example, SpamAssassin might mark a newsletter that you receive as spam, so if you want to continue to receive that newsletter, just add the "From" address of that newsletter to your whitelist box.
Or SpamAssassin might prove to be too sensitive, so you can increase the score a bit more. (the default setting is "5".)
Or you might discover that one of the tests (like, "contains html" - normally a good spam sign) isn't too good for your situation because all these girls keep sending you html love notes in different colors as email, and SpamAssassin marks these as 'sex spam', so you can find the name of the test that is adding to the score, and adjust that score entry specifically to be zero.
