Make it yours
Settings, starting with Windows, updates and getting help
Tune what the AI knows about you, how much mail to keep, the look and the tray; start with Windows; stay up to date; and ask for help in one click.
A few settings make emailbudAI fit the way you work. Open them with the gear at the top right.
About you
Your first name, surname and role tell the AI who “you” are, so it recognises when you're asked to do something, writes summaries in the first person and suggests replies as someone in your role. It stays on your PC.
Mail kept on this PC
Choose how far back emailbudAI keeps its copy of your mail, from 2 weeks to everything. Each choice shows roughly how much space it takes. Older mail is removed from emailbudAI's copy only; your mailbox is never changed, and emails linked to unfinished tasks are always kept.
Look and tray
- Text: the window's font and size.
- Look: dark theme, and the modern or classic window.
- System tray: send emailbudAI to the tray when you minimise or close it, so the scheduler keeps running.
Start with Windows
Tick Start emailbudAI when I sign in to Windows and it opens quietly in the tray each time you sign in. It's listed in Windows Settings > Apps > Startup as emailbudAI, where you can switch it off too.
Updates
When a new version is out, emailbudAI shows a Windows notification with Update now, a blue bar at the top of the window and an item on the tray menu. Updates are digitally signed and checked, and if anything goes wrong the previous version is put back. Check any time with More > Check for updates…
Getting help
Click Help in the main window, say what happened and click Send. emailbudAI creates a help case (for example HELP-00042) and emails you its number. If you leave Include logs ticked, the newest part of emailbudAI's logs goes with it, with email addresses, passwords and keys blanked out, and you can see exactly what's sent first.
No app to hand? Use the help page, or suggest features and report bugs on the forum.
Your data
Your emails, summaries, projects, tasks and settings live in %APPDATA%\emailbudAI on your PC. To back up, close emailbudAI and copy that folder. Uninstalling never deletes it.
