I finally found this old post (2014) which seems (I have not tried it
yet) to allow to identify (tagged) emails once they have received an
answer (https://lists.freron.com/mailmate/2014-September/003121.html),
but it does not address the possibility to remove the "awaiting-reply"
tag. One step at a time.

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

mailbox that contains these tagged emails (but there may be other
ways), but more complicated : I would like to remove them from this
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).
