概览

What is MCP Email Server?

MCP Email Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables Large Language Models like Claude to read, send, and manage emails via POP3/SMTP with TLS. It provides tools for polling inboxes, fetching full emails with attachments, deleting messages, and sending plain text or HTML emails.

How to use MCP Email Server?

Users can run the server directly via uvx git+https://github.com/ptbsare/email-mcp-server with required CLI arguments (--email-user, --email-pass, --pop3-server, --smtp-server) or by cloning and running locally. Configuration can be provided via CLI arguments, environment variables, or a .env file (priority order: CLI > env > .env). Integrate with Claude Desktop by adding an entry to claude_desktop_config.json using the uvx command with either env or args fields.
