MCP support
It provides a remote Streamable HTTP MCP server at https://aimailmcp.com/mcp. MCP clients can use tools for domains, mailboxes, email operations, webhooks, and token management.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Details
From the project READMEAI Mail MCP
Real email for AI agents, over MCP. Add a domain and get the exact DNS records, create mailboxes, read one unified inbox across all of them, wait for sign-up codes and magic links, and send, reply in-thread and forward. Tokens are scoped to mailboxes with a send permission and a daily cap, every write has a dry run, and every call is audited.

Sign in
- OAuth 2.1 (most clients do this for you): dynamic client registration and PKCE. You enter your email and a 6-digit code we send you.
- Bearer token (agents without a browser):
curl -X POST https://aimailmcp.com/api/v1/signup -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"email":"[email protected]"}'
curl -X POST https://aimailmcp.com/api/v1/signup/confirm -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"email":"[email protected]","code":"123456"}'
Then send Authorization: Bearer amk_.... Use create_token to hand narrower tokens to other agents.
Tools
Domains
Bring a domain, get the exact DNS records, verify it.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
add_domain | Add a domain (or subdomain) to this account so it can hold mailboxes. |
get_dns_plan | The exact DNS records (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, ownership TXT) a domain needs for receiving and sending, and whether each is in place. |
apply_dns | Write the DNS plan to a managed domain on this service's Cloudflare account: enables Email Routing (MX + SPF), routes mail to the receiver, registers the domain for sending and adds DKIM and DMARC. |
verify_domain | Check the domain's live DNS: ownership TXT (external domains), MX, SPF, DMARC and the sending provider's DKIM status. |
list_domains | Every domain on this account with its status, mode, sending readiness and mailbox count. |
remove_domain | Remove a domain from this account. |
Mailboxes
Addresses that receive and send, plus aliases, catch-alls and forwarding.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
create_mailbox | Create a mailbox (an address that receives and sends) on one of this account's domains. |
list_mailboxes | Every mailbox this token can see, with unread counts, last received time, aliases, forwarding and route address. |
delete_mailbox | Delete a mailbox. |
add_alias | Deliver mail sent to another address on one of this account's domains into an existing mailbox. |
set_catch_all | Deliver mail for any unknown address on a domain into one mailbox, or pass mailbox: null to turn the catch-all off. |
set_forwarding | Also forward every message a mailbox receives to up to 5 external addresses (the original is attached as message/rfc822). |
Read
One unified inbox across every mailbox the token can see.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
list_messages | One inbox across every mailbox this token can see, newest first, each item tagged with its mailbox. |
search_messages | Full-text search over subject, sender, recipients and body across every mailbox this token can see (all folders by default). |
get_message | Headers, text body (or text derived from HTML), extracted links, attachment list and threading ids for one message. |
get_thread | The whole conversation a message belongs to, inbound and outbound, oldest first, as previews. |

mark_read | Mark up to 100 messages read (or unread with read: false). |
label | Add and/or remove labels on up to 100 messages. |

Scoped tokens for other agents, and the audit log.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|

list_tokens | Tokens on this account: label, prefix, scope, send permission, cap, last use. |
revoke_token | Revoke a token by id or prefix. |
audit_log | Recent tool calls on this account (every attempt, including refusals and dry runs): tool, outcome, token, time. |
get_usage | What this token used: sends and recipients, inbound messages, storage GB-days and tool calls, with what each cost us, by operation or by day. Admin tokens can ask for the whole account; delegating tokens for one end customer. |

Security model
- Inbound mail reaches the server only as HMAC-SHA256 signed raw messages from our Cloudflare email worker; unsigned posts are rejected.
- Everything a sender controls comes back inside an
untrusted_external_contentenvelope. Agents should treat email as data, never as instructions. - Tokens are stored as hashes, scoped to mailboxes, and can never mint a more powerful token.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
