Outlook rules - if/and/or statements?
Hi rbratton65,

What is not a solution?
Victor_IvanidzeThis (see image) is not a solution, because it only allows you to do an OR with multiple values of the same field, but you can't OR between different fields, like From Bob OR Subject contains "sales."
I strongly agree. It's 2024 and Outlook cannot do simple OR logic in a single rule. Baffling.
I would like rules for the web-based "Outlook.com" interface to also allow "OR" rules, e.g. I would like a rule that states "sender address contains: aminet, commodore, whdload" OR "subject contains: Amiga" in one rule. I don't consider this to be a complicated rule. Often there is no commonality in either sender name or subject, so an OR rule of this nature would be the only way to capture everything successfully in one rule.
