If rule #1 snags a message and puts it in my mailbox, will a later rule (like
an ALWAYS rule) act on it?

What I want to do is this:  if the mail is NOT from a list, send a message
saying I'm away.

So here's what I want to do:

Rule #1
if from contains "such and such list" leave (put it into my mailbox)

Rule #2 
if from contains "such and such other list" leave

Rule #last
always execute "cat /home/clients2/mlevin/message | elm -s%S %r"



So if an incoming mail satisfies rule #1, will it continue down the list of
rules?


Thanks
