Is there a difference between the two here, and when should I choose which?

I did not recieve your email.
I have not recieved your email.

I think you did not recieve my email.
I think you have recieved my email.

Hi, It depends on your purpose. Grammatically speaking, both of them are correct. 1- I did not receive your email.

Hi,

Grammatically speaking, both of them are correct.
1- I did not receive your email. (I didn't receive it in past . This is finished)
2- I have not received your email. ( I haven't received it yet, but I expect to receive it later on,maybe)

Cheers,

Thank you, that was very helpful.
So I could use either depending on my purpose as you have explained. Am I correct?

Also, for number 1, did you mean: I didn't receive it in past or in the past?

Thanks again teacher.
