What are whitelists and blacklists?

Whitelists are "safe" lists. There is the address, domain, and term (word) whitelist section. When an e-mail arrives with an address, domain, or word that is in one of the whitelists, the message is not treated as spam. In the full version of the application, your personal address book contacts are automatically whitelisted for you.

Blacklists are just the opposite. When an e-mail containing the address, domain, or word contains one of the blacklisted entries, the message is treated as spam.
