## Overview

This skill helps you:

- Determine priority and urgency
- Identify required actions
- Filter out low-value emails
- Organize for efficient processing

## Classification Categories

### Primary Categories
| Category | Description | Examples |
|----------|-------------|----------|
| **Action Required** | Needs your response/action | Requests, approvals, questions |
| **FYI** | Informational, no action needed | Updates, announcements, reports |
| **Waiting** | You're waiting for others | Follow-ups, pending responses |
| **Delegated** | Forward to someone else | Wrong recipient, team matters |
| **Archive** | Keep but no action | Confirmations, receipts |
| **Delete** | Low value, can remove | Spam, irrelevant promos |

### Email Types
| Type | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **Meeting** | Invites, updates, cancellations |
| **Task/Request** | Someone asking you to do something |
| **Question** | Needs your answer |
| **Update/Report** | Status updates, progress reports |
| **Approval** | Needs your sign-off |
| **Newsletter** | Subscribed content |
| **Marketing** | Promotional content |
| **Alert/Notification** | System alerts, notifications |
| **Personal** | Non-work related |
| **Spam/Phishing** | Unwanted or suspicious |

### Priority Levels
| Priority | Response Time | Indicators |
|----------|---------------|------------|
| 🔴 **Urgent** | Within hours | Deadline today, executive request, blocking issue |
| 🟠 **High** | Within 24h | Important client, time-sensitive, direct request |
| 🟡 **Normal** | Within week | Standard requests, routine matters |
| 🟢 **Low** | When convenient | FYI, newsletters, non-urgent updates |
