IMAP Email FAQs

Question 1

What kind of email actions can my AI agent perform?

Accepted Answer

AI agents can list emails, read full messages, search by various criteria (from/to/subject/date/unread), manage folders, move messages, set read/star flags, delete emails, and handle attachments. With opt-in, they can also send new emails and reply to existing ones.

Question 2

How is IMAP Email different from other AI email tools?

Accepted Answer

Unlike tools restricted to specific providers (e.g., Gmail or Outlook only), IMAP Email speaks standard IMAP/SMTP, ensuring compatibility with virtually every email provider, including self-hosted, corporate, and popular services like Gmail, Outlook, Fastmail, and ProtonMail Bridge.

Question 3

What is IMAP Email and what does it do?

Accepted Answer

IMAP Email provides universal IMAP and SMTP capabilities as an MCP server, allowing AI agents to seamlessly list, read, search, send, and manage emails with any email provider that supports standard IMAP/SMTP protocols.

Question 4

Is email sending enabled by default?

Accepted Answer

No, for enhanced security, email sending capabilities are disabled by default. Your AI agent can only read and manage emails until you explicitly enable sending by setting `SMTP_SEND_ENABLED=true` in your configuration.

Question 5

How secure is IMAP Email with my credentials?

Accepted Answer

Security is a priority. Credentials are loaded lazily (only when a tool is called, not at startup), not logged, and sending is disabled by default. It's recommended to use app-specific passwords and secure environment variables.
