Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Many Gmail and IMAP accounts at once: unified search, triage, attachments, Calendar. Drafts-only.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Chat & email

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: GMAIL_MCP_HOME

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "multi-gmail-account": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "multi-gmail-account-mcp",
        "--mode",
        "drafts"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GMAIL_MCP_HOME": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add multi-gmail-account --env GMAIL_MCP_HOME=your-value -- npx -y multi-gmail-account-mcp --mode drafts

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "multi-gmail-account": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "multi-gmail-account-mcp",
        "--mode",
        "drafts"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GMAIL_MCP_HOME": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "multi-gmail-account": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "multi-gmail-account-mcp",
        "--mode",
        "drafts"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GMAIL_MCP_HOME": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • GMAIL_MCP_HOME env
    Folder for config, encrypted logins and the audit log (default ~/.gmail-mcp)

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Multi Gmail Account MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.3.0) reached the registry 12 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Multi Gmail Account MCP

Use all your mailboxes from Claude at once. This MCP server connects any number of Gmail and IMAP accounts, so you can ask *"what's unread everywhere?"*, *"who am I supposed to get back to?"* or *"read the invoice the supplier sent to the shop inbox"*. Claude searches every mailbox together and tells you which account each email came from.

Features

  • Multi-account by design:
  • Name mailboxes with aliases (shop, work, personal).
  • Search, summarize and triage all of them at once, or pick one.
  • Copies of the same email in two accounts are shown once.
  • Triage:
  • needs_reply finds conversations waiting on you, oldest first.
  • daily_digest and the /morning-digest prompt give you a briefing.
  • /reply-queue drafts answers one by one.
  • Attachments: read PDFs (page ranges, scanned pages), DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ODT/ODS, RTF, CSV/HTML, .eml and ZIP without saving them, and let Claude look at images (OCR included, Greek too).
  • Writing (as drafts):
  • threaded replies and reply-all
  • forwards with the original attachments
  • Gmail *Send mail as* addresses and signatures
  • local file attachments
  • Tidying:
  • newsletter report and unsubscribe
  • bulk archive / mark read / label / trash, always with a preview
  • labels and filters
  • Calendar (optional): events across all accounts, free time across every calendar, and creating events.
  • IMAP: any mailbox (Hetzner, cPanel, Fastmail…) sits next to Gmail, with the same search syntax.
  • Safety:
  • three modes (readonly, drafts = never sends, full) plus per-account limits
  • encrypted logins (OS keychain)
  • an audit log
  • refuses sign-ins from the wrong account
  • retries for reads only
  • Hosted mode: run it on a small server with Docker and add it to claude.ai as a custom connector (OAuth 2.1, password-protected).

33 tools in total. See the [tool reference](docs/tools.md).

Screenshots

Needs reply: everyone waiting on you, in every inbox, oldest first.Attachments: ask about what's inside PDFs, Office files and images.
Drafts only by default: nothing is sent or deleted unless you switch to full mode.Gmail and IMAP side by side, each with its own name.

Quick start

npm install -g multi-gmail-account-mcp
  1. Google OAuth client (once): create a Google Cloud project, enable the Gmail API, set the app to *External* and *In production*, create a *Desktop app* client, and save its JSON as ~/.gmail-mcp/oauth-keys.json. Step-by-step guide.

   gmail-mcp-multi auth shop shop@gmail.com

gmail-mcp-multi auth work me@company.com --calendar gmail-mcp-multi add-imap company me@mydomain.com --host mail.example.com # optional IMAP mailbox gmail-mcp-multi default shop gmail-mcp-multi doctor

  1. Add to Claude Desktop (*Settings → Developer → Edit Config*), then restart Claude:
   {

"mcpServers": { "gmail-multi": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "multi-gmail-account-mcp", "--mode", "drafts"] } } }

Claude Code: claude mcp add gmail-multi -- npx -y multi-gmail-account-mcp --mode drafts

  1. Ask Claude:
  • *Morning briefing.* (or /morning-digest)
  • *Who am I supposed to get back to?*
  • *Find the DHL invoices from October in all accounts and read the totals.*
