I see your point. Yes, possibly consent by whitelisting is not "clear
consent" but its best somebody can express in technical terms. I do
understand though that even after whitelisting somebody may want to run
some extra filters, but I'd expect this to be rare and when they violate
your "consent" and send you stock tips instead of anti-spam technology
letter, then possibly this would mean end of presumed white-listing
consent... At that point you would go and modify your preferences.

Specifying of other mail filters are consent by user to use specific
technology to filter out email.
I think that defining consent in terms of filters is very confusing
and inaccurate.
If I consent to receive a newsletter about books from Example, and
they start sending me a newsletter about Toys, then they haven't
listened to my request. That has absolutely nothing to do with
whether I've whitelisted newsletter(_at_)example(_dot_)com(_dot_)
I'm not sure if you are really combining whitelisting with that
concept of consent, or just using the same term in a different place,
but I think it would be a good idea not to use the term in both
places.
