Hello All,
HR case got created through the Inbound email action but got assigned to wrong assignment group.
Also getting this error in the log "Received id=<PAXPR06MB980603B6191B75E89FA2@PTGPR06MB7501.euhtxd06.prod.outlook.com> Classified as forward; Search inside email for a "From:" was bypassed because the property glide.email.forward_from_prefix was blank"
Can anyone help me with the root cause.

@Ashwini Sawant2 There could be multiple sources from where the assignment group can be populated on a case.
1. Via inbound email action.
2. Via HR Service template
3. Via an Assignment rule
4. Via a business rule
Please verify these sources and see if anyone of them is responsible for the incorrect assignment group.

It is due to email classification issues. The log error suggests that ServiceNow did not detect the correct sender because the system property glide.email.forward_from_prefix is blank.
Could you check the condition and script logic that determine the assignment group?
If the HR case assignment depends on Email Headers, check if the wrong sender information is causing incorrect routing.
If the assignment is based on keywords, validate that the script correctly extracts the right values.
