Iam using “get outlook desktop mail messages” activity
and in filter by message ids i have use an argument to pass the mail id to get filter like below.
But its not filtering based on the argument.
Here you are using email ID’s, but there you need to pass the message ID’s instead of MailID’s.
If you want to filter the by sender email address id
you can use filter Property instead of filter by messageid
“[SenderEmailAddress] = ‘abc@github.com’ OR [SenderEmailAddress] = ‘bcd@co.in’”
you can use this expression into in Filter property and replace with your actual mail ids.
And make sure about your properties if Only unread messages is set to true it will look for only unread mail messages if you want all messages irrespective of read or unread you can set to false and check limit emails to first property how many emails you given based on that count only it will get emails
go throw below tutorial as well to get more idea on activity

So is this id is unique for each mail id
@Gokul_Murali here id means message ID. It is different for each mail message. in your case you have to use filter property not filter by ID
Yes it’s unique while reading email via get mail messages
You can store id
Check the previous email number count as in how many email u r referring also check read unread related settings
This might be the reason its not finding email @Gokul_Murali
