dovecot - Jan 2022 - Stop used or not

Sieve scripts running fine, but please what would mean the "Stop", if
I have
multiple Policy that will run true, I need one stop to finish this per
section?



if header :is ["from","bcc","to"]
["Email-Address-one", "Email-Address-Two",
"and so on"] {

  fileinto ".\Magic-FolderName";

stop;

}



thanks

Without ?stop;? at the end and if you had a second rule like for example:
if header :is ["from","bcc","to"]
[?Email-Address-one?, ?Email-Address-Two?, ?and so on?] {
  fileinto ?.\Different-FolderName?;
}

the Mail would get copied in BOTH folders: ?Magic-FolderName? AND
Different-FolderName.

If you want to STOP further proccessing of that mail, once it gets proccessed by
a rule the first time, you use ?stop;? in the rule.
This means, even if a further rule would match the mail, it will not get
proccessed by that rule anymore.
