If I understand you correctly, you want "joe" to only see the "alias" 
address. In that case, whitelisting is probably not a good idea. Once 
joe is in your whitelist, future messages to joe will likely use your 
default "base" address. This depends on your filter configuration, but 
typically that's what the whitelist means: "This person checks out, and 
is permitted to see and use my real address."

I think the more practical solution is to adjust your incoming filters 
to handle joe the way you want. If the whitelisting idea was to prevent 
challenges, just add an incoming filter rule to accept mail from joe's 
address. You could also create a list of people like joe, who only get 
to see the "alias" address, and use a "from-file" incoming filter and a 
"to-file" outgoing filter pointing to your list, so you can avoid having 
to write the addresses in both filter files.
