You’ve been using “unread”as a to-do list.
This is the list — a real queue for the replies you owe, still in your inbox. Held mail is never dropped: it waits, and returns as one banner when you come back up.
- Reply Later
- The replies you owe, in a real queue, still in your inbox. The expensive part of replying isn’t the writing, it’s the switching — Focus & Reply walks the queue one thread at a time, composer already open.
- The morning sweep
- One bounded pass, a suggested verdict per thread from metadata alone — its own header says so. One Apply, and one undo if you were wrong.
- Commitments
- You wrote “I’ll send it Friday.” No model was involved in noticing.
- Search
- The vocabulary you already know — from:, has:, before:. Past 20,000 messages a ranked index takes over, and you don’t notice it happen.
- Attachments
- Every file you’ve ever received, in one searchable place. You’re looking for the file, not the message.
