Automated Airmail Unanswered Email Chase
Every morning, WebRun opens Airmail, scans the inbox folders you nominate for messages that asked you something and have had no reply past your grace period, captures the sender, subject and days waiting, logs each one in Airtable, and posts a ranked follow-up list to your Microsoft Teams channel.
How do I keep track of emails I have not replied to?
WebRun finds your unanswered email every morning. It scans the Airmail folders you nominate for messages with no reply past your grace period, logs each one in Airtable with the days waiting, and posts a ranked follow-up list to Microsoft Teams with the oldest first.
- The oldest waiting email is in front of you every morning
- Nothing important sits unanswered past your grace period
- Newsletters and no-reply mail stay out of the follow-up list

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it reply to anyone for me?
No. WebRun only reads which threads are still waiting and lists them for you. It never sends a reply, never forwards a message and never deletes or archives mail.
How does it avoid listing newsletters?
It skips automated mail. Bulk senders, notifications and no-reply addresses are filtered out, and you can add your own always-ignore list so only real conversations reach the follow-up list.
What counts as unanswered?
A received message whose thread has no reply from you and is older than the grace period you set, commonly two working days. Anything you already answered drops off the next run.
