It is very disappointing that Outlook doesn't have this basic feature. Even mail servers from 90th have it. Right now it is only AND statement. So if you need to do something with emails like moving in a folder emails from 2 senders, you can't do email1 OR email2, you must create 2 rules.
Also, you can't use something like "do something with emails from addresses *@some.com", only specify the particular address. (SOLVED)
It is possible via "Keywords -> Sender Address Includes"

100% correct, the conditions are only AND conditions, no OR conditions, so ends up creating multiple separate rules when it could all be in 1 rule.
For example: moving messages when from sender A OR with abc in the subject
