I want to setup a rule that checks for a certain sending address OR a
certain word or words in a subject line.

ie: From : BSmith@yahoo.com Subject: Forks and spoons
From: BSmith2@yahoo.com Subject: knives

I want one rule that says anything from BSmith@yahoo.com OR has the word
"knives" in the subject gets moved to one folder. Is this possible with
one rule? Or do I have to make two distinct message rules?

thanks

The latter is required.

Which is why Outlook Express is better in this one small respect.

I wonder why Outlook does not have an OR choice.
