Functional Outlook Automation Demo with Python

What does the script do?

• Establishes a connection to Outlook via COM.
• Filters items to work only with real email messages.
• Extracts key information (sender, subject, received time).
• Logs all activity in a log.txt file for traceability and easier maintenance.

Optional features (easy to add)

This script can be easily extended to include features such as:

• Filtering by subject or keywords.
• Detecting if emails were replied to or not.
• Saving pending emails to .xlsx or .csv files.
• Automatically sending follow-up messages after X days.

Ideal for:

• Automating repetitive email tasks in corporate environments.
• Implementing follow-up workflows with clients.
• Boosting personal or team productivity. If you'd like to test a custom demo or need a specific feature, feel free to get in touch!
