Thanks for the answer. But when user sends mail to himself, the received inbox mail is identified as a sent mail. Also what if user sent a mail with delegation of other user (send as permission), sent mails in user mailbox is identified as received. Any idea to overcome this case? – Susi_003 Sep 02 '21 at 05:07

You can try the following steps and see if this helps your scenario:

Get the mail folder collection directly under the root folder of the signed-in user. The returned collection includes any mail search folders directly under the root.
```
 GET /me/mailFolders
```
Get messages in a specific folder in the user's mailbox - Use list messages endpoint for this.
```
 GET /me/mailFolders/{id}/messages
```
