list_emails
List email summaries from a specified Outlook folder, ordered newest first, with a 500-character body preview. Supports pagination and date filters for browsing.
Instructions
List email summaries in a specific mail folder, ordered newest first. Each result includes a 500-char body preview for browsing without needing get_email. Returns {items, count, hasMore} — when hasMore is true, increment offset by limit to fetch the next page. Use after/before (ISO 8601) to filter by received date. For full email content, use get_email. Requires Outlook to be running.
