Probably my mistake.  I am not an expert.  I figured it should go in Imp
or Sam.

I don't think a threshhold is the problem.  I think it has to do with the
global whitelist and the user's whitelist in the same field on the form and
the tick box for global.  I wondered if it something to do with mysql not
allowing duplicates for the user and for global.  

I just tried it again.  I added 3 global email addresses.  I went to imp
and whitelisted one more and now the 3 global ones are gone from the list
in sam.  If I hit save global again they are removed from the global
whitelist.  Maybe someone else could try this to see if they get the same
result.  Perhaps I am doing something wrong.  I use Microsoft Access with
tables linked to mysql to double check what is going on.  At a minimum it
seems like a very easy way to accidentally delete your global whitelist
without any warning.

I don't think I am.  Do you mean by this that I have too many in the
whitelist?  I don't think this is an issue as I just tried it with 3 emails
and it did the same thing as with 30.  Thank you.
