Rob,
There are several 'with specific words' options when creating a rule. See if one of those will work for you. I've had to use these for especially difficult mail.
There are a couple related to specific word, or words, in the senders address. I don't know off-hand if that looks at the description or just the address. There is also one for a word, or words in the message header. That may be the way you need to go.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [External] [PCTECH] O365: How to block emails by the senders description?

Let's say I have a company emailing me with addresses like Lamp Shining Manufacturing Co.,Ltd sales07@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:sales07@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The address on the right is constantly changing. But I want to block based on the description instead.
I tried adding a rule
Apply this rule after the message arrives with Lamp Shining Manufacturing in the sender's address move it to the Junk Email folder and stop processing more rules
I tested it by the run rule now function. It didn't work. I had to add the @ address to get it to work. Which, since it constantly changes, is pretty worthless.
