In your case, you probably want to search for [To].
The - operator (as well as | and "") is to be used only when using the
[matches the search pattern] criterion. These operators are ignored when
using the 4 first criterion.

Thank you Jérôme,

It worked!

I see I should had used Content instead of From or To, and I should had
not used "-" negation as manual said?

- "do not contain" can only be used in addition to another criterion (for
example: [content] [includes the exact phrase] [a-no-ne.com], [content]
[does not include the words] [hiro])
- "do not contain" can only be used for words, not for exact phrases

I still need to shut off catch all since I get bounced SPAM mail which
has my domain name as the sender.

Again, I need to find out all the garbage email addresses I created for
catch all throughout PM data base, and exclude search should work, no?

I was beginning to wonder if the reason of search not working is because
my domain name contains hyphens.

The best spam filter is webmail.

1. Use webmail and log into your pop account.  My Isp has one, or you can
use Panadmail or others.  I just start Safari and Powermail at the same
time, and log in through webmail using Safari.  Then...
2. "Select all"
3. Look down the list and uncheck the ones you want to keep.  This way the
spam is still selected.
4. "Delete"  cleans out all the spam and leaves the good stuff
5. log out and then switch to Powermail.  (Using my Kensington 4-button
trackball it's the upper left button, scroll to Powermail & click.
6. log in with Powermail and just download the remaining contents of your
mailbox.

I can clean 120 emails in about 2 minutes this way, usually keeping 3-4. 
The only trick is not to do it backwards and keep the ones you want to
trash and trash the ones you want to keep.  I have done this.  No big
deal.  If it's important they'll email again.
