I'm trying to set up a mailbox which just contains emails to and from members of my family, all of whom, amazingly, have the same surname as me - Taylor.

So I'd like to have a smart mailbox which includes all messages which have at least one Address fulfilling the following constraint: it contains "Taylor", but it doesn't contain "Martin". How do I do this?

I think this will do it; in the Smart Mailbox editor:

Mailboxes:
√ Include messages in any submailboxes of this mailbox
Select the root mailbox from the dropdown menu (e.g., the INBOX of your account)

Conditions:
• Click the + to add a condition
• Option-click the same (now) top + button to add another compound condition; then (regular) click the second + button to add another regular condition within the compound condition you just added. Make them look like this:
√ ALL of the following are true
   √ ALL of the following are true
      √ [Recipient (To, CC, Bcc)] [contains] "Taylor"
      √ [From > Name] [contains] "Taylor"
   √ [From > Name] [does not contain] "Martin"

This will gather all messages that were SENT FROM or RECEIVED BY a "Taylor" who's not you.

Sadly, it doesn't: it gathers all messages that were SENT FROM *and* RECEIVED BY a "Taylor" who's not me, so it misses any emails which are sent from a third party to all members of my family.
