Basically, after any action that affects a message (discard, fileinto etc.) you should decide whether your processing of that particular message is over. If so, use "stop". Failing to do so can lead to very surprising results as the message is examined by later tests.

OK, now I think I understand. So if the IF-statement hold true and the script does something that's generally where the users wants to stop (unless the message should be processed further). If the IF-statement does
not hold true, then the "stop" function has no effect and it move onto the next rule, right?
If so, then I've learned something, thanks
