That's what it's supposed to do.  The steps for the filter are

- run filterb.plu plugins
- if plugin result is not ERR_SKIP then filter
- run filteru.plu plugins (result can't be ERR_SKIP)

You could take the noreply out of filteri.dat.  Check the spam.log and
see how many it catches.

You could possibly get Randy to change trashfinder to return ERR_SKIP instead
of ERR_NONE.  Then you can run trashfinder from filterb.plu and it will
act as you expect.
