Default Outlook rules

Hi all,

I'm very familiar with Outlook Express rules but am having trouble using
rules in my Outlook mail at work.

1. I am trying to create rules to sort mail if the From field has a match
OR there is a certain match in the Subject field. All I can get is the AND
function, not OR. In OE you can change the AND to OR but I can't see how to
do that in Outlook. I've been creating two separate rules but would like to
do it in one. Can I ?

2. When the rules sort to different folders, it does not seem to "Stop
processing more rules" - what happens is the same message goes to two
different folders if another match is found. How can this be prevented ? I
want a message to be sorted once and then never checked again. Is there a
trick for this ?

any help would be greatly appreciated !

Mike
