I've been noticing that message from one particular sender
are often sent to the junk folder instead of going where
the filter that matches both the subject and the sender
(though the filter is set to the OR of either one.)  This
doesn't ALWAYS happen, but it has been happening often
enough that I need to ask a question:

What happens first:  Filtering or Junk Checking?

I have the Regula anti-spam plug-in and, overall, have
been very happy with it, so this is more of a curiosity
than a problem.  I think I can correct it by adding the
automated account that sends me the daily report that is
having trouble to my address book (and thereby whitelisting
it for the anti-spam plug-in.)

I'm still curious about the order of evaluation, though.

It certainly /looks/ like the anti-spam is run BEFORE any
of my filters.  I wonder if it would be possible (and useful)
to be able to have the anti-spam and anti-virus plug-ins
listed in the filters so that we could move some of our own
special exceptions before or after them?
