Automate Your Email Replies with AI and Fastmail
detail.loadingPreview
Effortlessly manage your inbox by automating email responses. This workflow leverages AI to draft replies to incoming emails, saving you time and ensuring prompt communication.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow revolutionizes your email management by integrating with Fastmail and advanced AI. It intelligently reads incoming emails, identifies key information, and then uses a powerful language model to craft a relevant and personalized response. The generated draft is then saved directly into your Fastmail drafts folder, ready for your review and sending. This solution is perfect for anyone looking to streamline their communication and reclaim valuable time spent on repetitive email tasks.
Key Features
- AI-Powered Drafting: Utilizes advanced AI models to generate context-aware email responses.
- Fastmail Integration: Seamlessly connects with your Fastmail account for both reading emails and saving drafts.
- Customizable Triggers: Can be configured to process specific types of emails or all unread messages.
- Smart Formatting: Handles email content and structure to ensure accurate AI interpretation.
- Draft Folder Saving: Automatically saves AI-generated replies to your Fastmail drafts for easy review.
How To Use
- Configure Fastmail Credentials: Set up your Fastmail API credentials (HTTP Header Authentication) within n8n.
- Set Up IMAP Trigger: Connect your email account using IMAP credentials to read incoming emails. Configure filters like "UNSEEN" to process only new messages.
- Extract Email Fields: Use the 'Set' node to extract relevant data from the incoming email, such as sender, subject, and plain text content.
- AI Response Generation: Connect to an AI model (like OpenAI) and provide a prompt that includes the extracted email subject and content. The AI will generate a draft response.
- Get Mailbox IDs: Use the 'HTTP Request' node to fetch your mailbox IDs from Fastmail, specifically identifying your 'drafts' folder.
- Filter for Drafts: Implement a 'Filter' node to ensure only relevant emails are processed for draft creation.
- Upload Draft Email: Configure the final 'HTTP Request' node to send the AI-generated response as a new draft to your Fastmail account, including recipient, subject, and body content. Ensure the correct mailbox IDs and keywords are used.
