Managing your inbox shouldn’t feel overwhelming but for many teams, the daily flood of emails can lead to missed opportunities, delayed responses, and productivity bottlenecks. At Taskip, we believe in smarter, simpler workflows that help you stay focused and in control.

That’s why we’re excited to introduce our latest enhancement: Workflow Automation for Inbox. This new feature allows you to automatically organize and manage incoming emails based on custom conditions you define. From sorting messages by sender or subject, to setting specific triggers by time and inbox destination this feature gives you the power to automate repetitive tasks and handle emails more efficiently than ever before.

With Workflow Automation, your inbox becomes more intelligent, responsive, and tailored to your way of working so you can spend less time sorting and more time doing.

What Is Taskip’s Workflow Automation for Inbox?

Workflow Automation for Inbox is Taskip’s latest productivity tool designed to streamline how you handle emails. It allows users to set up rule-based automations that instantly act on incoming messages based on specific criteria. Whether you’re managing high volumes of customer inquiries or internal communications, this feature ensures that the right action happens at the right time without manual intervention.

With this release, you can create personalized automation rules that work behind the scenes to keep your inbox organized, responsive, and aligned with your team’s workflow. These automations respond to various triggers like sender details, subject content, timing, and inbox destination and perform predefined actions such as assigning tasks, labeling messages, or archiving emails.

It’s a smarter way to eliminate repetitive email handling, improve consistency, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

Conditions That Trigger Automations

Taskip’s Workflow Automation gives you the flexibility to create intelligent rules that respond to incoming emails based on conditions you define. These conditions act as the “when” in your automation logic allowing the system to recognize exactly when it should take action. Here’s how you can customize them:

Taskip inbox workflow automation conditions

By Specific Sender

Target emails from one or more specific email addresses. Whether it’s a VIP client, a team member, or a vendor, you can automate actions for those senders to ensure priority handling.

Example:
If an email is from ceo@company.com, assign it to the leadership team instantly.

By Email Subject

Set conditions based on subject line content using flexible options:

  • Matches exactly
  • Does not match
  • Contains specific words or phrases
  • Does not contain certain terms

Example:
If the subject contains “Support Request,” assign it to the support team and tag it as high priority.

By Day and Time

Trigger automations based on specific days of the week and time ranges. This is ideal for after-hours emails or time-sensitive tasks.

Example:
If an email arrives between Friday 6 PM and Monday 8 AM, mark it for review on Monday morning.

By Inbox Destination (To Email Address)

Create automations specific to a particular inbox address—great for organizations managing multiple inboxes for different purposes.

Example:
If the email is sent to sales@yourdomain.com, route it directly to the sales pipeline.

These condition types can be combined to create powerful, context-aware automation flows that match your team’s real-world communication patterns.

Available Actions in the Workflow Automation

Once an email meets the conditions you define, Taskip’s Workflow Automation executes one or more actions automatically eliminating the need for repetitive manual handling and ensuring that your workflows remain smooth and responsive.
