The story
My inbox was too full. I didn't want to read every new mail as it came in, only the urgent ones.
So I built a bot. Every hour it fetches new Outlook mail through Microsoft Graph and lets Gemini classify each one. Urgent mail comes straight to me on Telegram. Everything else waits in a queue and arrives as a short digest at 09:00 and 18:00, Istanbul time.
It is a Next.js app on Vercel, with Upstash Redis for the queue and the encrypted tokens, and GitHub Actions as the clock. It all fits in free tiers.
