Payment notification email is fired before or after mu-plugins function?

I have Payment Notification email set, and also use the notification api to create a function that hooks into init inside mu-plugin/s2-hacks.php that changes the value of a custom field after each payment. I use Paypal and s2member pro.

My question is when the email is fired, is it before or after executing that function?

Can not be before “init” hook… Try to find the sequence of firing the hooks with dome debug plugin like “Debug bar” or “Query monitor”.
