Don't kick yourself yet. If more than one hook can apply, like a
send-hook, then all are checked and all matches are applied in the
order found. If, however, only one can apply (like a folder-hook or
mebbe an fcc-hook), then the first one to generate a match drops you
out of hook checking -- and so you should have your default case at
the end.
Sounds kinda funny at first, but you certainly couldn't have send-hooks
stopping early, and why bother to build some sort of a parse tree for
f*-hooks if you can just count on intelligent users to reverse their
order for that type of hook :-)
