Email filter setup

This may be a simple question, but I could sure use some help. When I receive
email from an important new sender, I create a rule to direct their later
messages to my alert window. Not only does this results in numerous rules,
but it can often lead to a new sender's first message being overlooked.
Although I work with hundreds of individuals, they represent only a handful
of organizations. How do I create a rule that will caputure all incoming
email from a specific organization? Most senders' have email addresses that
end with their company name, i.e. (e-mail address removed). Is there a
wildcard character to cover (e-mail address removed)? What is the best way to
do this?

Use the "with specific words in the message header" condition ans specify
"companyname.com" or just "companyname" as the specific words.
