Email (Gmail & Outlook)
Crew can manage your email from any connected email service — search your inbox, read messages, compose and send emails, and reply to threads, all through natural conversation.

Search Emails
Find specific emails quickly:

"Find emails with PDF attachments from the finance team."
Crew supports Gmail's full search syntax, including filters like from:, to:, subject:, has:attachment, after:, and before:.
Read Emails

"What does the email about the project deadline say?"
Crew shows the sender, subject, date, and full body content.

"Email John and Sarah about the meeting rescheduling. Make it professional but friendly."
Crew automatically:

Adds a professional layout
Supports CC and BCC recipients
Reply to Emails
"Reply to the last email from David saying we'll have the numbers ready by Friday."
"Reply to the thread about the budget proposal and confirm I'm available for the call."
Replies maintain the original email thread so the conversation stays organized.

Practical Email Workflows
Morning Email Triage

Bulk Response Draft
"Find all unanswered emails from this week that are waiting for my reply. Draft responses for each one — keep them professional and concise."
Email + Calendar Combo
"Check if I got a meeting invitation from Acme Corp. If so, check my calendar for conflicts and reply accepting or suggesting an alternative time."
Research + Email
"Search the web for the latest pricing of Salesforce Enterprise plan. Then email our procurement team with the findings and recommend whether to renew."
Follow-Up Automation

Tips
Specify the account if you have multiple: "Send from my work email..."
Be specific about recipients: Include email addresses when possible for accuracy
Review before sending: For important emails, ask Crew to "draft" instead of "send" — review the content, then tell Crew to send it
Use with scheduled tasks: Set up a daily scheduled task to check for important emails and send you a summary on Telegram every morning
