I have   header
   text
   text
   sender
because whatever you used last time you used all four, or more stick.

What  is really the problem is that you can search for A and B and C, 
or you can search for A or B or C
but there is no way to search for A and B and C or D

OK, I misunderstood what you meant.

I guess the interface is slightly different between our versions. In
4.0.38 each of those "search condition" lines has two drop-down boxes
to choose between header, text, memo, subject, etc. and to choose
"contains," "starts with," etc.

For 4.0.38 this can be achieved by editing the registry value at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat!\Finder\Scopes

In fact, no we are talking about different things. You have just
described "search string".

I have four "search conditions". These are:
Header contains
Sender contains
Subject contains
Text contains

I can add more by clicking on the "New Condition" button below that.
However, I cannot reduce the number of conditions to only three or two.

We are both referring to the same thing: in the box marked "text
contains" (or "subject contains" or whatever) I enter a string to
search for. I later find that string has been stored without my
permission in a "history" so that it appears either in a drop-down
list at the end of the "subject contains" etc. boxes or in a different
list under the menu item "Edit | Use previous conditions."
