How to Ask ChatGPT a Question About an Email (The Easy Way)

In: Use Cases

May 5, 2025 by the Dropflow Team

Ever found yourself staring at a long email, wishing you could just ask ChatGPT to summarize it, write a reply, or explain what the sender really means? The problem is, there’s no simple way to get that email into ChatGPT - especially if it's in your inbox and not easy to copy-paste.

The Problem

ChatGPT is great at answering questions - but it can't read your emails. So unless you manually copy and clean up the text, it's hard to get help with real-world messages. Whether it's a confusing client brief, a long internal update, or a cryptic request from a colleague, you're stuck doing extra work before you can get answers.

Dropflow Makes It Simple

Dropflow solves this with a neat trick: just forward any email to your unique Dropflow address. We'll instantly extract the content and give you a clean, private URL you can paste straight into ChatGPT. ChatGPT can then read the email and help you with summaries, drafts, action items - whatever you need.

FAQ: Is It Safe?

We get it - email content is sensitive. Dropflow does not use your data to train ChatGPT or any AI model. Your content stays private, and only you (and whoever you share the link with) can access it.
