It shows both the STOP and UNMATCHED rules, because when generating
the info-page it is not possible to determine if the STOP or UNMATCHED
will trigger - that might depend on circumstances such as the
time-of-day when the alert happens.
There is a code to tell you that it's a stop-rule: It has "(S)" after
the recipient. UNMATCHED isn't flagged like that, which is a bug.
