The functionality of a reminder email depends on the returns method. For example:
Ship with any carrier of your choice: After {approved time + X days}, if shipping status = IS NOT shipped nor shipment received, the reminder email will be sent
Ship with a returns label: After {approved time + X day} for RMA with return label added, if Shipping status = IS NOT shipment received, the reminder email will be sent
Green returns (the customer keeps the item): No reminder email will be sent
