Default 4 wheel alignment question

If you have a frame that is not straight, when a 4 wheel alignment is performed, will the machine pick up that the car is not straight?

bump**

Anyone?

Going through a tough rebuild after an accident, down to a few minor issues, one of the last is the car is slightly pulling to the right, when you let go of the steering wheel it starts to go over to the right. Been through 2 alignments (at the same place) and I'm not sure if their calibration is off or if it's possible the frame is off.

If it's the frame, wouldn't the alignment machine pick it up?

Thanks...
