IFTTT Recipe: Followup on Starred Mail Reminder Digest

If you use Google Apps Mail, as I do, or GMail, star­ring mes­sages is a great way to mark them as impor­tant or for lat­er fol­lowup. Get busy, how­ev­er, and you could for­get to about those starred mes­sages. I cre­at­ed the fol­low­ing IFTTT recipe to send me a dai­ly email digest of starred mes­sages to help me remem­ber to followup.
