Can I use "AND" in Outlook filters?
Problem
I wish to create an Outlook rule that matches two non-adjacent words in the subject line. It must match both words (AND), not one or the other. If I add the two words as one entry it treats them as a phrase rather than two distinct words, and if I add them as separate entries, it places an "OR" between them. Creating two rules doesn't work either, as they behave just like the "OR" case. Is there any way to say, in effect, "Apply this rule to emails matching ALL of the following words."?
