    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Another logic you can give a try is 

     

    1) Get all emails from Sent Items folder in outlook 

    2) Loop through all mails from sent items and check whether the mail with that subject starting with Re exists in Inbox, if yes it means mail has received a reply , else it has not received a reply.

     

    See below flow design for better references:

    expression:  concat('Re:',items('Apply_to_each')?['subject'])

    expression: length(outputs('Get_emails_(V3)_2')?['body/value'])

    Note:  Replied mail has Re at start of subject line

    Thanks, Nived N.

     

    I really wanted to also know those that haven't been responded to within 5 days. Should I just put a delay for 5 days after get email v3 (2)?

     

    I really appreciate it.

     

    Regards, Pol

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    As highlighting in the screenshot which i have designed

    add a if condition checking whether the mail has been sent 5 days ago (using the date difference from today's date with sent date) and if yes , then send a notification to the person 

     

    That's how you can do  it 🙂

    I have been testing this flow on one of my project, however I am encountering an error:

    Thank you,
