I have all my address book entries in an LDAP that is shared across a number of users.
The "Junk Settings" within "Account Settings" for the option:
"Do not mark mail as junk if the Sender is in" .... Is not showing my LDAP address Book in the pulldown. There is no reason why it should not be. So this looks like a possible bug/oversight.

I can go into Address Book today and select my LDAP and over on the upper right enter a partial email address and the Address Book correctly finds all instances of that partially entered address.
Checking for a whitelist would be much the same logic but would in fact be on a complete fully qualified address - not a partial.
I just think that not providing some level of support for an LDAP is missing out on a good opportunity.
I can understand (but disappointed) that you don't write addresses to an LDAP but retrieving should be somewhat easier.
I have opened bug 363509.
