Sending an email to your boss saying "I'll resign unless X" is a serious ultimatum. You need to be prepared to not have a job when at the end of it, and you were the one who initiated the process. I'm not too concerned with if she technically should have been given a chance to take it back. Don't send an email threatening to resign, lose your job, then say "actually, I was fired."
> and without respecting her stated plan to work on an end date.
You don't really want to let an employee already sending inappropriate emails to a wide audience have another week to send more.
I've been in a professionally self-destructive place before and I didn't realize it until later. 100% speculation here, but I wouldn't be shocked if she had a death wish and was hoping for some version of this outcome. Could be frustration with work, covid depression, or something else.
