AutoGen Tutorial: Build a Simple Multi-Agent Email Triage System in Python

This tutorial guides readers through creating a simple multi-agent email triage workflow using Microsoft's AutoGen framework in Python. It starts with a single AI agent for email classification (phishing, spam, legitimate), then adds a tool for checking sender reputation, and finally builds a small team of agents that collaborate to decide actions like quarantine, inbox, or manual review. The article covers installation, async programming basics, and provides runnable code examples. Prerequisites include Python 3.10+ and an OpenAI API key. The tutorial is practical and focused on IT/technology topics such as AI agents, automation, and security.
