Hi @tulasi8 

 

1)To see how many catalog items were created by an inbound email, check the sc_req_item for records where the Description, Short Description, or Contact Type contains email-specific markers.

 

Also check if you have put Requested for , any hard coded value. It will make your work easy.

 

2) Check Email log.

  • Navigate to System Logs > Emails.
  • Filter the list where State is Processed and Type is Received.
  • Search the Target or Subject columns for strings relating to your catalog item

 

Please Accept the solution if it assisted you with your question & Mark this response as Helpful.

@tulasi8 

are you setting some variable with some information to determine this?

if not then you won't know it possibly

Try to see requested_for field gets populated with what user

That might help you to differentiate
