Thanks for your e-mail which/that was very interesting.

I think 'that' is the correct option.

Am I right?

Thanks.

sundarnaz Am I right? Neither sentence is natural. " "That" would not work there.

Neither sentence is natural. Use "Thanks for your very interesting e-mail." If you want to make a parenthetical subordinate clause with "which" or "that", then you need a comma, and "which" is natural: "Thanks for your e-mail, which was very interesting." "That" would not work there.

Neither.

It is rather impolite. It implies that all the other emails went into the trash folder because they were uninteresting, dull and boring.

Instead:

I found your last email to be very interesting.
