> Imagine a user emails your support address. A Worker can receive the email, parse its content, call a third-party API to create a ticket, and then use the Email Sending binding to send an immediate confirmation back to the user with their ticket number. That’s the power of a unified Email Service.

This is/was already possible. You can just reply to an email from an email worker.



I had the exact same thought. I guess now you could put something in a queue if you have to do non-trivial processing before replying, but that’s not what they wrote


i did this exact thing literally 15 years ago with a simple django app -- there's no way they are using this kind of example in 2025 year of our lord.
