Watch my Outlook inbox for mail from my manager, our top account's domain, or anything marked high importance, and send me a Slack DM the moment one lands.

Runs Every 15 minutes

Some senders should never sit unread. Forge watches the inbox for mail from the people and domains you name and pings you right away, so a critical message never gets buried under newsletters and receipts.

How it works

  1. 1 Scan new inbox mail for your named senders, domains, or importance flags
  2. 2 Skip anything already alerted so you are not pinged twice
  3. 3 Alert you with the sender, subject, and a link
