The four heights
The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task
+Stop receiving messages from spammer123@annoying.com. Block that sender so future mails go to Spam, and remove any existing copies from the inbox. Confirm by sending a test from spammer123@annoying.com and tell me when the inbox stops showing their messages.

Improve — make it easier to accept
+Before I block spammer123@annoying.com, make it easy for the office manager to decide: show recent examples of the sender's messages, list the sender's From and Return-Path headers to detect spoofing, and flag if the sender shares a domain with any customer we communicate with so we avoid false positives.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+I blocked an address and the person says they still get replies.
I blocked spammer123@annoying.com after repeated unsolicited messages, but the sender has contacted our account team saying they still receive replies from us. The people involved are me, account lead Carlos, and the blocked sender; I don't know whether replies come from aliases or group addresses. What's the likely reason replies still go out and the best immediate fix to stop outgoing replies to that address?

Become — change the pattern
+We block addresses but new variants keep appearing.
We keep blocking individual senders like spammer123@annoying.com, yet similar nuisance addresses reappear from the same domain a week later. Which habit should we change—moving from single-address blocks to domain or pattern blocks, improving reporting, or training staff—and what exact practice will minimize repeated blocking work?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
