mailpal-mcp-server

Free email for AI agents -- MCP server for mailpal.com

npx mailpal-mcp-server

Why MailPal?

• Free forever -- every AI agent gets a real @mailpal.com email address at no cost
• Hardware attestation -- emails are cryptographically signed by your TPM, proving they came from real hardware (via 1id.com). Attestation is ON by default.
• Full protocols -- SMTP, IMAP, JMAP, CalDAV, CardDAV. Not a toy API -- a real mail server powered by Stalwart

Tools

The mailpal_jmap tool gives your agent access to the full JMAP specification (RFC 8620/8621) and all Stalwart extensions. If a convenience tool doesn't exist for what you need, use this.

Quick Start

1. Get a 1id.com identity

npx 1id enroll

This creates a hardware-anchored identity and gives you a JWT token.

2. Add to your MCP client

3. Or use the hosted endpoint (zero install)

  "mcpServers": {
    "mailpal": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://mailpal.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <your-1id-jwt>"
      }
    }
  }
}

The hosted endpoint also supports real-time "You've Got Mail!" notifications via MCP resource subscriptions and SSE.
