Finding the "OR" Function in Rules

[Grebington]

I just moved from Outlook Express to Outlook and half of my rules
didn't make the import, the other half have been altered. Let's forget
about the ones that didn't make it. But, it seems that the function
"OR" has dissappeared from my rules as well as the ability to even add
it.

Example - the rule used to read:

Delete if SENDER contains the words "Viagra" OR if SUBJECT contains
the words "Viagra" OR if BODY contains the words "Viagra.

Now the same (hypothetical) rule reads:

Delete if SENDER contains the words "Viagra" AND if SUBJECT contains
the words "Viagra" AND if BODY contains the words "Viagra.

How can I replace AND with OR?

Also can the command "Stop processing all other rules" be added
without starting over. I've read a few posts that suggest that is
where many people have problems with inconsistent rule execution. But
when I try to add it to my rules, it wants to delete all of the
conditions that I have been collecting for a year or two and start
again fresh. Can it be done as an add-on.

Please e-mail me directly if you can help. Any help would be
appreciated.

Those would be three different rules. Outlook only ORs multiple entries in a
single rule condition such as "subject contains ..."

You can add the "stop processing" action to any rule at any time. Just click
Modify to modify your existing rule.
