Here's one that you could use. Suppose you wish to mark all messages
that you post to discussion lists as read when they are echoed back at
you? Well, you could create a filter rule for each discussion list to
mark messages from you as read and then move them to their respective
folders. The other solution would be to create a single filter making
a) destination folder the inbox,

b) Sender : You .... Presence: Yes

c) action : mark message as read

d) option : continue processing with other filters.

This single filter will mark all these discussion list messages from you
as read and then they will move on to be filtered to their respective
folders by each discussion list filter. If you are a member of many
discussion lists then this could really save you a lot of trouble and
decrease the clutter of your filter rule set.
