Hello, welcome to the community

Yes, its possible to automate everything with n8n. To give you a head start:

• Use an email trigger node, this will execute your workflow when an email is received
• Add a categorizer node to route the email depending on its content
• Add an agent(if you want AI generated response) with Send a message tool, or attach it at the end of your workflow directly.

This is a simple flow that you can build on. There a lot of resources and templates out there that can help you. Take a look into n8n’s template library, as you can find guides and ready to use workflows in there.

Edit: I misread your post and thought you wanted to reply to emails your receive in your inbox. Here is what I should’ve written →

• Depending on the database you are using to store user sign-ups, you can use built-in On app event trigger nodes of n8n.

• If your database does not support events/webhooks, then you have to implement webhook logic directly in your website(e.g. Sign-up form button). Your website must be able to send a request on user sign-up(webhooks). n8n has a built-in webhook node that triggers when a request is sent to the URL’s it provides.

Here is how it works , when someone signs up on your n8n website it triggers n8n, then n8n automatically adds them to your email newsletter list , it can also immediately send them a personalized welcome email message you set it up once and every new signup gets handled automatically so you never miss a potential customer
