Process Email
Last updated
Process Email lets you manually trigger the AI to respond to a specific email, without needing the AI Agent to be enabled.
Open an email in Gmail.
The MailAgent sidebar will detect the open email.
Click the Process Email button.
The AI will read the thread, generate a response, and either send it or create a draft (depending on your Draft Mode setting).
When the AI Agent toggle is off, opening an email shows an enhanced view with:
A brief summary of what the sender is asking for or communicating. This helps you quickly understand the email without reading the full thread.
AI-generated reply suggestions based on the email content. Each suggestion shows:
A preview of the response.
A Use button to create a draft with that response.
Quick replies are great for:
Common questions with standard answers.
Acknowledgment emails.
Simple yes/no responses.
If the quick replies don't fit, use the custom prompt field:
Enter a description of what you want the reply to say.
Click Generate Reply.
The AI generates a draft based on your instructions and the email context.
The field also shows suggestions based on the email content to help you get started.
When the AI Agent is on, the sidebar shows a simplified view with just the Process Email button. This is useful for:
Forcing the agent to reprocess an email it already handled.
Processing an email that arrived before the agent was enabled.
Generating a response for an email the agent skipped.
If you've reached your daily email limit, the Process Email view will display a notification with an option to view your subscription plan and upgrade.
