Dedicated grok-bot@domain.com mailbox: daily spam clear + morning report
Human inboxes drown in spam and cold outreach; you want a bot desk that clears without mixing your identity.
What hurt
Alexander Zuev (@zlxndr) wanted a simple email agent that clears incessant spam. With Grok Bot he gave it its own user grok-bot@domain.com, shared credentials, and let it read/send from that mailbox. Daily it clears spam, moves cold outreach out, unsubscribes, and sends a result report each morning. Method + tip. Not affiliated with xAI.

The prompt
This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.
First run
- 1Read https://x.com/zlxndr/status/2103934172977086666 for Alexander’s setup.
- 2Create a dedicated mailbox (e.g. grok-bot@yourdomain.com) — not your personal address.
- 3Connect that mailbox to Grok Bot (credentials / email plugin) so it can read and send only there.
- 4Define daily jobs: clear spam, move cold outreach aside, unsubscribe where safe, keep a keep/review pile.
- 5Schedule a morning report of what it cleared/moved/unsubscribed; review the first week before trusting unsubscribes.
Approval fence
Sends and unsubscribes stay on the bot mailbox; never auto-send from your personal address without a gate.
What to tweak
Steal “bot gets its own mailbox.” Clear and report from grok-bot@… — not your primary identity.
