# Sample mailbox

Nothing real in it. One file, so on a phone it is easier than copying ten of your own messages.

Two weeks, sixteen messages each. **Week one is for tuning. Week two is the holdout** — do not read it
until you have finished tuning. The answer key is in `06_two_week_test.md`, so do not open that one
either until you have run yours.

The context block that goes with this mailbox is the worked example in
`03_ten_line_context_block.md` — Northside, Harbour Point, Aldridge. Use it as written.

## WEEK ONE — tune against this

**1. From: Priya Raman — Subject: Northside sequence**
Can you send me the revised install sequence before Friday? I need it to brief the crew.

The goods lift will be out of service Thursday 08:00–12:00. Please plan deliveries accordingly.

**3. From: Dan Okafor (Meridian Joinery) — Subject: Northside — weekly update**
Good progress this week. Carcasses are finished and the spray shop has them now. On scheduling, the
cabinets will now arrive on the fifteenth rather than the eighth — the finisher had a backlog. Site team
are aware. Everything else is on track and we are pleased with how the doors have come out.

**4. From: Aldridge Steering — Subject: November steering pack**
Attaching the pack for the November meeting. No action needed before then.

The quarterly review has been scheduled for 21 November at 10:00. Invitations have gone out.

**8. From: Priya Raman — Subject: Re: Northside sequence**
Ignore my last — I can work from the old sequence if it is easier. Still useful to have the new one when
you get a chance.

Before I sign off, can you confirm whether the renewal is on the same payment terms as the original?

**13. From: Dan Okafor — Subject: Invoice 2291**
Attached. Payment terms thirty days as usual.

**14. From: Harbour Point building management — Subject: Access**
We have had your request. The site access letter needs a named contact and a date range. Send those and
we will issue it.

**15. From: all-staff@example.com — Subject: Flu jabs**
Sign-up sheet is on the intranet. Optional.
