MCPEmails
Live email for your AI agents without the copy. Connect Gmail, iCloud, Fastmail, or any IMAP inbox once, paste the MCP endpoint into Claude Desktop, claude.ai, Cursor, or another client, and your agent can call inbox_list, email_read, email_compose, email_organize, and schedule. Every call hits your provider in real time via Gmail API, JMAP, or IMAP. Message bodies go to the agent and are discarded immediately. Nothing is cached between requests. OAuth clients connect with one click; others use scoped API keys. When your agent sends mail, it goes through your own SMTP server or provider API, so your domain reputation stays yours. Free tier is genuinely unlimited. Reach for this when you want agents drafting replies, triaging support queues, or running scheduled inbox sweeps without handing a third party a standing copy of your mail.
