[Bug 3716] New: check_whitelist reports total score incorrectly

http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3716

           Summary: check_whitelist reports total score incorrectly
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 2.64
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: Tools
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ryan@sasknow.com


First noticed with 2.64, but this bug may exist in earlier versions. Not serious
enough to roll out another release, but, at the very least, we can document this
as a known issue with a known fix.

2.64's check_whitelist has a bug in the output line that reports the total score
as being identical to the average, since the same value is passed to both format
strings. I'll attach a simple patch for those interested, but my recommendation
to those using check_whitelist on 2.6x is to use the 3.0 version of
check_whitelist, as it has been expanded considerably, has better documentation,
and works.

After my patch, I ran 2.64's check_whitelist against 3.0's check_whitelist on
the same 20MB database, and the results were identical in the eyes of diff(1).
