Give your AI
agent an inbox.
Connect Gmail, iCloud, Fastmail, or any IMAP inbox once. Paste one MCP endpoint URL into Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT, Windsurf, n8n, Make, or any MCP client. OAuth clients connect in a click, no API key setup. Your agent reads, searches, and sends mail live, and the mail it reads is never stored.
Six things we believe
about email and agents.
The decisions that shaped the product. If any of them stop being true, that's a bug worth filing.
- 01Scope
Eleven focused tools. The essentials, covered.
Tools cover the everyday work:
inbox_list,email_read(list, read, search) andemail_compose(send, reply), plus focused tools for organizing, deleting, folders, drafts, scheduling, contacts, signatures, and unattended automations. Paste the MCP endpoint URL into claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible agent. - 02Storage
Email is fetched live. Never stored.
Every tool call hits your provider in real time: Gmail API or IMAP. Message bodies, subjects, and attachments go to the agent and are discarded immediately. We persist one thing per inbox, an encrypted token or app password, so we can make the next call. The one exception is a message you schedule to send later: we hold it until the send time, then keep a record for your history.
- 03Sending
You stay in control of every send.
Messages go through Gmail, Fastmail, or your own SMTP server, never our mail relay. Turn on per-inbox approval to hold sends, replies, forwards, draft sends, and scheduled sends for dashboard review. Automated retries can reuse an idempotency key for 24 hours, and Gmail can send only from a provider-verified Send As identity.
- 04Providers
Gmail, iCloud, Fastmail & any IMAP inbox.
OAuth 2.0 for Gmail; app-specific passwords for Fastmail, iCloud, Yahoo, Zoho, and Yandex; a generic IMAP / SMTP connector for everything else. Every inbox reports a versioned compatibility profile, so an agent can use portable actions while seeing where a provider behaves differently or cannot support an operation.
- 05Access
OAuth 2.0 for agents. One click to revoke.
We're standard MCP (streamable-http) with OAuth 2.1, DCR & PKCE, so there is no vendor lock-in. Works with Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT, Windsurf, n8n, Make, LibreChat, OpenWebUI, and any MCP-compatible client. OAuth clients connect automatically via authorization code + PKCE; a scoped API key covers clients without OAuth and scripted access. Revoke any connection from the dashboard in one click.
- 06Security
Credentials are encrypted at rest.
OAuth tokens and app passwords are AES-256-GCM encrypted before being written to the database. Decryption happens only inside an isolated Edge Function at call time. The encryption key is stored as an environment secret, separate from the database.

A real-time dashboard for every connected inbox, API key, and tool call, so you always know what your agents are doing.
You're the user. We're the pipe.
Three steps from sign-up to your agent reading and sending mail.
Connect your inbox
Sign in and click Connect Inbox. Choose Gmail, iCloud, Fastmail, or any IMAP inbox, then complete OAuth or paste an app password. Credentials are encrypted; the mail your agent reads is never stored.
Paste the URL: OAuth or API key
For an MCP client that supports OAuth 2.0 (claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and others), paste https://mcpemails.com/api/mcp, click Connect, and authorize. No key needed. For clients without OAuth (Cline, JetBrains, custom scripts), generate a scoped API key in the dashboard instead.
Your agent works the inbox
The agent calls tools like email_read() or email_compose(). MCPEmails fetches live from your provider and returns the result. Nothing is cached between calls.
Just ask.
It reads, writes, and files.
No dashboards to learn. Tell your AI assistant what you want in plain English, and it uses mcpemails to get it done.
