Each message is treated independently of another where filtering is
concerned. You can't tell a filter to do an action depending
characteristics of previous messages filtered.

The headers may be different but the message ID's the same. If the same
message is sent to different lists, the message ID could still be
intact if the senders mail client generates the message ID.
