Cancelled - this will show emails that have been cancelled, when they were cancelled and who they were cancelled by
Failed - this will shows emails that have failed to send and why they failed to send. Note that you can try to resend failed emails from the Timeline section by clicking the 'Retry' option.
Incoming - this will shows emails coming in from a third party, when they arrived and who they were sent by
Outgoing - this will shows emails going out to a third party, when they were send and who they were sent by.
Scheduled - this will shows emails that are scheduled to send at a later date, when the emails are scheduled to send and who and who set the schedule. You also have the option to send the email now or to cancel the email from the Timeline. Additionally, when an Undo Send time is set, the option to send emails straight away or to cancel sending the email
will appear in the Timeline during the Undo Send period (see here for more information about the Undo Send option) when scheduled emails are set to appear in the Timeline.

Include related work items – when this is switched on, the comms tab will display communications not just from this work item, but for all related work items.
When a related work item appears on the timeline, its reference will be displayed in the timeline.
This setting is switched on by default for Cases so that when viewing a Case, you will also be able to see communications for all of its corresponding Actions.
This option is switched off by default for Tickets and Actions, so they will default to only displaying communications from this work item.

If a filter is applied, a number will appear next to the filter icon telling you how many types of communications you are able to see out of the total number of types of communications available.
