I would like to include in a mailbox the messages which are waiting

smart mailbox (for example by untagging them) when they receive an
answer. I am pretty sure this problem has been treated in the past in
this forum, but I can’t seem to find the right conversation.
What you want is a rule that:
1. Detects that an incoming message is a part of a thread.
2. That the previous message (or perhaps a previous message) in the
thread is tagged with "awaiting-reply" (or whatever).
3. Removed the tag from the tagged message.
Or, alternately, a rule on the virtual mailbox that contains the tagged
messages that removes the tag when a reply is received:
1. Message contains the tag.
2. Thread of the message has a later message.
3. Action: remove the tag.
I don't know you would do this. My experience with rules is that they
act on a message based on criteria of the message (as opposed to
checking a different message).
