You were close to what I wanted; what I want is From abc@xyc or ABC on the
subject because several departments use different mail servers though common
words in the Subject heading, but there are others that use different
Subject headings and, of course, different mail servers as well. My quirk is
that I could create a very long list of e-mail addresses to cover them all,
but when one or more @s change then it becomes a lot of fun trying to find
them in a very long list. If you can see how I could do this, please tell me
because I seem to be blind to the possibilities.

It is a real shame that such useful options are not implemented in two
rather similar products by the same company.

Again, thank you
  :-)
