For example:
Consider the following: I have multiple mail accounts, want to search multiple "and" and "any" criteria simultaneously.

One rule single rule would look like this:
Search for messages in:
Inbox on account 1
Sent on account 1
Inbox on account 2
sent on account 2

match All of the following:
to does not contain: soandso@email.com
subject does not contain: "this string"

Match any of the following:
to contains: someone@somewhere.com
from contains: someone@somewhere.com

Ctrl+Shift+F Set your search and use the save button in the search dialog to make it a virtual folder.

this doesn't let me "and" and "or", as well as multiple folders. I can only match "all" or "any" but not a combination of both.
