Using AND in Sent to field in rule

I have Outlook 2003 and would like to be able to use AND when creating rules
- is that possible? If I for example would like to send all messages sent to
distribution list X AND to distribution list Y to a specific folder - how can
I do that?

Strictly speaking, you can't. Single fields are OR, cross fields is AND.
So, what you need to do is trick it. Three DLs is a little more tricky,
but you'll be able to figure it out probably.

Here's the trick:

First rule on the list checks to see if the message is to DL #1. If it is,
it puts a flag on the message.
Second rule on the list checks to see if the message is to DL #2 and if the
above flag is on the message. If it is, it does whatever you want done to
the message.

For a third DL, you'd have to find a different thing to do. Maybe add a
category.
