Here's what I would like to do:
I would like to change this "and" to an "or" because creating 5 different rules to exclude 5 categories is inefficient when an "or" would be so much better.

NathanaelEpic What about changing the OR to AND with recipients?
If you have two accounts, you may want to create a rule for each, in order to store the emails addressed to each of them in a specific folder.
But then, if a single email is addressed to both, you'll get a double copy of it in one of these folder, and no copy of it in the other one.
But if you try creating another rule stating what should happen if an email has both the addresses as recipients,You only get a rule with the or statement:
How can I set a rule condition based on an email sent to both my email addresses, in order to have a single copy of them stored in each account's specific folder?

If you are ready to pay, I'll create a Power Automate flow with this functionality.

wow, could you spent 5 times and show such flow?
