Friday Inbox Digest

Sends a weekly email digest of what still needs your reply.

Overview

Friday Inbox Digest is a Dot that sums up your week of email on Friday afternoon. It skips newsletters, receipts, and automatic notices, then groups what is left into three lists (to answer, waiting on others, and FYI), with one line per email naming the sender, subject, and what is needed. The digest goes only to you. It is blocked from deleting, archiving, or labeling email and needs approval to email anyone else.
