Hi Vicki, Here is what you want. Once you have added the words you want in your rule, hit the add button. Next, tab to the options button, and spacebar that. When this dialogue opens, you should hear, where the subject line containsTab once and you should hear, message contains all of the words below, radio button.
If this button is selected, you will get the, "and".If you down arrow once you will hear, message contains any of the words below.
Selecting this button, will change the, "and", to, "or". HTH, Richard Justice www.blind-computing.com----- Original Message ----- From: "Vicki" <amethyst17@xxxxxxx>

Thanks, but this is not exactly what I'm looking for. I don't have a problem creating the rules at all. My problem is with finding the option to use the word or instead of and when choosing more than one specification for a rule, specifically "where the subject line contains" and the "to line contains". Iwant the word and taken out and the word or put in. Hope this makes sense.----- Original Message ----- From: "Waleed" <waleedmarzouka@xxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2007 10:28 AM Subject: Re: Message rules in OE Hello,This is a web page on how to create message rules in outllook express.

All I can do is create a rule that has the subject line contain the phrase and the to line contains the address. If I use the and instead of the or, then only the messages with both that subject and address go to the folder. The other messages with the address go into my inbox. How can I create a rule that states or instead of and in the rule? Thanks.
