As per my understanding of existing message sending code

Yes. Mute overrides other settings.

I guess we should have something like below

> command to un(watch|follow|mute) tags and categories explicitly

May be we have problem here. It may still send message to #my-channel.

I think we should come out from loop instead of moving to next record in [this condition](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-slack-official/blob/master/lib/discourse_slack/slack.rb#L174). Particularly when `i[:filter] == 'mute'`. Am I right @tgxworld?
