Email triage and drafting agent
OpenClaw: An agent called Donna triaged three email accounts for 30 days, flagged urgent mail on Telegram, and drafted routine replies for approval.
About 85% of triage was correct, no urgent email was missed in 30 days, and routine inbox processing dropped from 10 minutes to 2.
Overview
How it was set up
Donna runs on an OpenClaw gateway on a Mac Mini with IMAP and Microsoft Graph access, a persistent memory file, 30-minute checks, and Telegram alerts. Never sends without approval.
Worth knowing
Tone matching, context loss across sessions, CC choices, and relationship-sensitive replies failed, so the scope was cut back to routine emails.
A prompt to start from
Check [email accounts] every 30 minutes in business hours. Sort mail into urgent, important, informational, and noise. Message me on [channel] for urgent items. Draft replies to routine mail only, and never send without my approval.
