Mailroom

internal Tool | Not for Public

Multiple Gmail accounts, one attention queue. It reads my email so nothing important slips.

Mailroom: multiple accounts, labels, the unified inbox and an enquiry open in the reading pane (demo data)

Why I built it

I've ended up with more Gmail accounts than one person should; a few personal, and one for every product and company hat I wear. The mail that mattered was drowning in the noise, and I was either checking every inbox in turn or missing things I really shouldn't have.

The notch HUD: now playing, the attention queue, screenshot shelf and new vault notes (demo data, real song)

So I built my own place to manage the lot. Mailroom is a native Mac app that mirrors every account into one view and keeps an attention queue of the mail that actually needs me; rules first, then AI triage that knows what my products and clients look like. The idea landed at lunchtime; I was reading my email in it that evening.

Day one it flagged a sale, two real enquiries and an action-required from Google, and buried the rest. Since then it's grown past email. The notch at the top of my Mac is where it lives now: whatever I'm playing sits up there with the controls, notes I drop into my Obsidian vault surface as chips the moment I save them, and a tap opens that exact note straight back in Obsidian. Screenshots land there too, ready to drag wherever I need them.

It's been my daily driver since. No plans to sell it any time soon.
