    If you want to change status at the same time email convert to task. you can add step to update this email in workflow.

    Here are steps.

    1. open and deactivate this workflow.

    When email is received or sent it's already in "Completed" state that is kinda "Inactive". What do you mean with "Deactivated"?

    Hello,

    There are multiple ways:

    1. Worklfow.

    2. Flow.

    3. Code.

    Vague questions can be answered on with vague answer. Try to be more specific.
