Yes, can imagine that being a hard habit to break. Think I’d like AI to sort my “shopping email” 😅

I didn’t realize how much time I spent in the mail app for other things that lead to ooh let me check this quickly.

I relate to this so much Lee! Especially on the habit part, after all those automations, I'd still open my inbox to check for important information, lol

Thank you for the shout out through out!

Isn’t it funny that of all the strides these are the hardest to overcome. Thanks for the nudge and inspiration.

Most email that comes in is noise. I do not have Gemini/Gmail in my corporate job, but I will look to adapt something like this for Outlook. I have seen several automations available through Power Automate. Looking at email is "productive" in the sense that it keeps you busy, but most of it isn't something you need to attend to immediately.

Can you use CoWork? I know it's not the same as a script but it can do the triage part for you.

I need to do something like this, my inbox is out of control

Omg, the breaking habit of checking is way worse than honing the script.
