How to stop losing interesting newsletters in a heap of spam

Hey indiehackers! I quite often find interesting newsletters that I subscribe to and this usually ends. Why is that? Because a small part of the useful content that I want to read is drowning in a heap of advertising spam, service updates, notifications and other garbage. And deliberately sitting and looking for the desired mailing list is lazy and you don't always want to do it.

How I solved the problem?

It's good that now you can solve a huge number of tasks without using code, without involving developers and simply being able to think a little logically.

Below I will describe a simple solution that sends the newsletters I am interested in to Telegram. It took about an hour to complete and here's how it works.

Tools stack

Integromat - for configuring logic
Airtable - for storing information about subscriptions
Telegram - to receive notification

Step 1

I need to record somewhere a list of all emails from which I want to receive mailings. Therefore, I created a simple table in Airtable with the name of the sender and his email.
My newsletters
Whenever I want to add or remove any mailing list, all I need to do is just update the table.

Step 2

I connected my gmail account with an integromat and provided the necessary access. The integromat has detailed instructions on how to do it correctly, so there were no problems.

Step 3

I created a telegram bot through botfather, received a token and add it in an integromat so that it could send me notifications about new newsletters.

Step 4

Set up a scenario where the emails of all new emails are compared with the list of emails from which I want to receive notifications.
My scenario

There are also 2 conditions under which either a full message is sent (if the length matches the required one), or just a notification to go in and read it by mail.

Whats next?

First of all, I solved my problem and am glad about it.

But in general, a couple of days ago I came across a thread on Twitter, where a lot of people wrote that they are constantly losing useful content in a heap of advertising spam. And in general, it seems to me that there is such a problem.

Therefore, if you, like me, do not want to lose interesting content - leave a request on the site or write to me in telegram - I will ask a couple of questions and if there is interest, then within a couple of weeks I will make the first version of the product;)

You can also independently assemble a similar solution on an integromat or any other nocode tool and write to me if you have any difficulties - I will try to help.
