I am entering filter from the sender which has a corporate domain, but it doesn´t pick up any emails. Without the filter it does pick up the emails, but i really need this filter to work.

Regards

From Contains needs Full email address. So just the domain will not find anything. Its not very intuitive since it says "From contains"

With Body and Subject you can filter with key phares so string that is in the body or subject. Could you filter the emails with body contains or Subject contains?

I can do it with subject and body. But not from contains. Which in this case I need to have as the email is replied by many recipients.

Then I suggest you use VBScript that retrieves all the emails that contains.

Then you can get the list of the different emails and loop them. So split the VBScriptOutput into list and remove duplicates. Then Loop each email and use the Retrieve email messages from outlook -action.
