I want to go the other way...IFTTT mail to IOT cloud

I can find tons of examples for sending an action from an arduino to IFTTT but going the other direction seems less popular. I have been dabbling with Arduinos for personal projects for many years. This is my first attempt at the IOT platforms.

My task is simple. I am looking for a way to send an e-mail to IFTTT that would in turn illuminate an led on my MKR WIFI1010. I am pretty sure I could get a switch from a dashboard to work on the remote arduino but my task requires that I do it via email with a keyword or something in the email subject line.

So how do I generate the webhook addresses required for this reverse traffic? Is it something supported on the free version of Arduino IOT? In IFTTT I imagine I would have a THIS event as a WebMail function and a THAT event as a Webhook. I am not sure I understand how to get the webhook address to provide to the IFTTT interface.

Any help appreciated.
