Why make things so difficult:
just divide them up in two rules in the same filter-set:
They act like an 'and'-combination.
so instead of using the pipeline, use:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] recipient no
[EMAIL PROTECTED] recipient no
This gives the same result as you intended with the pipeline.
If you need an 'or' combination, create another set... (under the
alternatives-tab)
