Hi

Hope these steps would help you resolve this

—use a input dialog box and get the value and store it in a variable like in_variable
—then use GET MAIL activity either outlook or exchange and mention the FILTER PROPERTY AS

“[ReceivedTime] >= '”+now.AddDays(-(Convert.ToInt32(in_variable.ToString))).Date.ToShortDateString+"’ “

and mention in TOP property as 1 so that you will get the first mail out of it
—and save the output as out_mailmessages

Hope this would help you resolve this

Pls let know for queries or clarification

Cheers @Maria99
