Maybe add a special filter only for the mailing list address that makes XMail stop further filter processing - it's pointed in the manual how to do this: http://www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#message_filters << Additional flags are allowed to be returned to XMail as a result of filter processing by adding the flags value to the exits code above listed. The currently defined flags are : '16' Stop selected filter list processing. >> So if you add a simple filter (before the other filters!) like: "return"<tab>"16"<newline> for you mailing list, that should avoid further filtering. Should work on unix/linux, but I did not test this. Good luck! - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
