Can someone assist on this ?

Hi, unfortunately the partial screenshots and details in your post don't help much with diagnostics.
Does the sending email address exist in your instance as a user or contact?

If not
Have you enabled automatic creation of users for unknown emails?

Hi @SaileeV 

The information you've provided is a bit limited, e.g. Inbound action/flow that processes the email.

From the looks of it though I've got a feeling its not worked because you've sent it from an external domain.

Check your mailbox filters as it could potentially be that your instance has been configured to only accept emails from within your organisation.

System Mailboxes > Administration > Filters

Please mark as helpful or if its resolved the issue, CORRECT!
