I am attempting to create a filter that contains conditions that will cause
a HOLD on the emails that it matches.  My HOLD weight is 100 but I also use
some reverse weighting so I was thinking that adding 500 points should do
it.  

In my global.cfg I have :
BLACKFILTER filter D:\IMAIL\Declude\Filters\BlackFilter.txt x 500 0

In my $default$junkmail I have :
BLACKFILTER    WARN

As 500 points is enough to HOLD the email I want the processing of this
email to stop as soon as it matches something in this filter.  If my
BlackFilter.txt file is composed of lines like:

SUBJECT     STOPALLTESTS     CONTAINS China Business Directory
BODY     STOPALLTESTS     CONTAINS Evil Spammer

will the test return 500 points on the first match and HOLD the email
without further processing of filters or other tests.  I understand the
filters are processed in the order they are listed in the $default$junkmail
so this will be the first Filter listed but there are FROMFILE's listed
earlier in the $default$junkmail.  If I put the filters earlier in the
$default$junkmail than the FROMFILE's will they also trigger earlier?  In
this scenario will I need a SKIPIFWEIGHT line in any subsequent filters to
suppress their running?

Thanks in advance,
