mail rules and the functions its provides

So to start..... my system is old... MBP 7,1, 2010..... I've done upgrades so its still kicking pretty well but I can't upgrade past High Sierra..... Yes, I know it's old but unless anyone wants to fund a newer computer please don't comment.


But I started setting up mail rules because smart mailboxes aren't cutting it since they don't cross over to iOS (iPhone XS Max, iPad 6th gen).


The problem I'm running in to is the rules have an "all" or "any" choices. It also provides for adding parameters to the rules. But does not have an "And" or an "Or" functions for the parameters.

Any suggestions around this?
