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"

Hi oleksiikrutilko,

 

1)  why do you compare "mail servers from 90th" with email client?

 

2)  your statement

Also, you can't use something like "do something with emails from addresses *@some.com", only specify the particular address.

is wrong.  Did you ever see "with specific words in the sender's address" condition?
