I am using the elm "filter" feature.  I have successfully forwarded
my mail to the filter, and have a set of filter-rules as to what
the filter is to do if I get mail from certain people or about 
certain subjects.  

My problem:

Is there a way to have the filter do more than one job on a letter?

i.e.  I get mail from somedude@chuck.pu.edu and I want to
        a)  send him a form thank you _and_
        b)  put the mail in my mailbox

If there is no way *yet* to do this with the elm filter, would
someone possibly have a shell-script for csh that would do the
same thing, that I could run using the EXECUTE command of filter?

Thanks,
Scott
