Automated Thunderbird Email Follow-Up Chasing
Every morning, WebRun opens your Thunderbird inbox, finds incoming messages that are more than two days old with no reply from you, drafts a short polite follow-up for each in Gmail, and sends you the chase list on WhatsApp so you can approve and send.
How do I find emails I forgot to reply to?
WebRun reads your Thunderbird inbox each morning and finds threads where a real person wrote to you more than two days ago and never got a reply. It drafts a short polite follow-up for each one in Gmail, leaves them unsent for your approval, and messages you the chase list on WhatsApp.
- No client email sits unanswered for more than two days
- Follow-ups arrive pre-written and only need a quick read and send
- One WhatsApp message replaces a manual inbox sweep every morning

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 email anyone without my approval?
No. Every follow-up is saved as an unsent Gmail draft. You read it, edit it if you want, and press send yourself. WebRun never sends mail on its own.
How does it avoid chasing newsletters and receipts?
It skips bulk senders, no-reply addresses, and automated notifications, and only counts threads where a real person wrote to you and you have not answered.
What if I replied from a different device?
It reads the live thread state in Thunderbird each morning, so anything you have already answered is dropped from the list and no draft is written for it.
