can I set up search folders with and|or logical operators? How? Also, is
there a goo tutorial out there with different stratagies for using search
folders? Not jus tthe simple: "here is how to set one up," but rather "here
is how to get the most bang for your buck using search folders."

you'll need to use querybuilder

I don't know of any specific search folder pages with strategies - but the
filter dialog is the same for views, autoformatting, and advanced find - and
I have a lot of tips on creating filters across both outlook-tips.net and
slipstick.com.

One strategy is to reduce the number of search folders needed - especially
with exchange accounts as there is a limit - by combining views with search
folders. Make one search folder that does something globally then created
filtered custom views to further control what you see.
