if I do NOT hear from you by then vs if I do NOT hear from you

Both phrases are correct, but there is a difference between them. The first phrase, 'if I do not hear from you by then,' implies a specific deadline or time frame for a response. The second phrase, 'if I do not hear from you,' is more general and does not specify a time frame. The choice between the two depends on whether a deadline is relevant to the situation.
