자주 묻는 질문

Apple Mail MCP, 안전한가요?

해당하는 기본 점검 1개 중 1개를 통과했어요. 코드는 읽지 않았어요. 키나 토큰을 넣기 전에 서버가 어떤 권한을 요구하는지 확인하고, 꼭 필요한 권한만 있는 키를 쓰세요.

어떤 키나 코드가 필요한가요?

레지스트리에 필수 키가 나와 있지 않아요. 다만 처음 쓸 때 로그인을 요구하는 서버도 있어요.

내 컴퓨터에서 실행되나요, 클라우드에서 실행되나요?

내 컴퓨터에서 실행돼요. AI 앱이 필요할 때 실행하고, 데이터는 제작자의 서버를 거치지 않아요(서버 자체가 온라인 서비스를 호출하는 경우는 제외).

아직 관리되고 있나요?

GitHub 저장소는 마지막으로 – 변경됐고, 최신 버전(1.8.3)은 21일 전 레지스트리에 올라왔어요.

어떤 앱에서 쓸 수 있나요?

Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code처럼 MCP를 지원하는 앱에서 쓸 수 있어요. 내 컴퓨터에 Python (uv)도 있어야 해요.

✉️ apple-mail-mcp

Your Apple Mail, fully agent-operable.

Runs locally on your Mac. It opens the Mail store read-only, returns only what a client asks for, and sends only when the client explicitly calls the send tool. No third-party relay, no cloud copy of your mail.

uvx apple-mailbox-mcp setup

Measured on a 300k-message store: addressing one message 0.1 ms via Mail's own index, against 7 to 10 s for the AppleScript whose-clause; full-text search p95 under 1 ms. Method and script: docs/benchmarks.md.

Use Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, or any local MCP client to search, read, triage, and send email through Apple Mail — your mailbox becomes something you can ask, search and delegate to — find anything in seconds, file hundreds of messages through a reviewed plan, send polished mail as the right identity, and let Exchange deliver scheduled messages even while your Mac is asleep.


✨ What you can do

🔍 Ask your mailbox questions. *"What did Maria send me about the memo last week?"* Search runs at database speed — sender, mailbox, dates, unread, attachments — and reconstructs whole conversations.

🕳️ Find what Mail itself can't. Mail's built-in search only skims the first line of most messages. apple-mail-mcp indexes every message body on your Mac — and for Exchange accounts it even fetches the bodies Mail never downloaded, straight from your own mailbox on the server. Queries that returned nothing return twenty.

🎭 Send as the right you. Work mail through the work lane, personal through Gmail — one parameter picks the identity. Every message is composed from scratch as clean, standards-correct email that renders everywhere, *including Outlook* (the AppleScript compose path that arrives blank in Outlook is the reason this project exists).

⏰ Schedule like "Send Later", but scriptable. A scheduled message is frozen in full — attachments, identity, exact text, and since 1.8.2 the threading headers, so a scheduled reply lands in the conversation it answers. Exchange can execute it server-side at the requested time, lid closed; other providers use a local background sender and deliver on its next pass (or just after the Mac wakes).

🗂️ Triage at scale, without fear. *"File these 40 newsletters"* becomes a reviewable plan: nothing moves until it is approved, every message is re-checked before it is touched, and the result is verified against Mail's own records afterward. Delete means Mail's Trash — nothing is ever erased.

📝 Draft where your drafts live. Compose into your real Exchange Drafts folder, ready to open in Outlook or OWA — created, never auto-sent.

⚡ Why it's different

Every other Apple-Mail MCP drives AppleScript for both finding and acting. This one doesn't — and it shows:

OperationAppleScript whose-clauseapple-mailbox-mcp
🔍 Search 300k messagesseconds-to-timeoutmilliseconds
🎯 Address one message in a 71k mailbox7–10 s (measured)< 0.1 ms
✉️ Send mailbody renders blank in Outlookrenders everywhere, plain+HTML
⏰ Schedule mail—server-side on Exchange; reliable local queue everywhere else
🗂️ Bulk triageone call per message, fire-and-forgetone reviewed plan, one apply, verified

Every number above was measured on a live ~300,000-message store; the script and full method are in docs/benchmarks.md.

If the benchmarks hold up on your mailbox, a ⭐ helps others find this.

🛡️ Built to be trusted

  • ✅ Plan → review → apply → verify. Bulk actions are frozen into a plan you can read before anything happens; the outcome is confirmed against Mail's own store afterward — never assumed.
  • 🗑️ Nothing is ever erased. "Delete" files into Mail's Trash, and destructive plans have their own separate, capped door.
  • 👓 Read-only mail mode. Set EMAIL_MCP_READ_ONLY=1 and only the 11 non-mutating mail tools exist in the session. Search may still maintain its local body index, and attachment retrieval writes the requested file to the configured temporary directory.
  • 💾 A crash-safe scheduled queue. Manifest updates are flushed and atomically replaced, so an interrupted rewrite keeps the last valid record. If a file is damaged independently, diagnostics name it instead of claiming the queue is empty, while healthy scheduled messages keep moving.
  • 🧾 A local, best-effort activity ledger. Sends, schedules, cancellations and triage runs are recorded without making an unwritable log block mail. For reconciliation, the message itself, its Message-ID and its scheduled record remain authoritative.
  • 🔒 No third-party mail relay. Mail content stays local except for mail you send and optional access to your own provider for Exchange/IMAP body backfill, drafts and server-side scheduling. SMTP passwords stay in the macOS Keychain or 1Password; Microsoft OAuth tokens live in a private 0600 cache under ~/.email-mcp/graph/.
  • 📜 A written contract. Since v1.0 every tool's shapes, error codes and caps evolve additively, held in place by 800+ automated tests.
  • 🤝 Clear to every MCP client. All 21 tools identify what they do, explain every input, and declare whether they read, change or can remove data. Newer clients receive structured results; older clients keep the same JSON text. MCP SDK 2.2 and newer 2.x releases are tested, with support for older clients.
  • 🧱 Built to evolve without breaking your workflow. Email rules are isolated from MCP, Mail.app, Exchange, delivery, and local storage. Provider or SDK changes stay at the edge while the 21-tool contract remains stable. The dependency rules are enforced in CI and explained in the architecture guide.
  • 📦 Releases you can verify. Every tagged release is built and installed in a clean environment before publishing. GitHub includes the wheel, source archive, SHA-256 checksums and signed build provenance—not just source code.
  • 🩺 Self-diagnosing. apple-mail-mcp status gives one readable readiness, scheduling and recovery screen. apple-mail-mcp doctor provides the complete diagnostic detail and an exact fix for anything red.

🚀 Quick start

  1. Grant Full Disk Access to your terminal app (System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access), then quit and reopen the terminal. This is Apple's one manual toggle — there is no pop-up for it.
  1. Install and set up:
   uvx apple-mailbox-mcp setup     # or: pipx install apple-mailbox-mcp

or via Homebrew:

brew install parasxos/tap/apple-mail-mcp && apple-mail-mcp setup

  1. Register with your client — one line for Claude Code:
   claude mcp add --transport stdio --scope user apple-mail -- uvx apple-mailbox-mcp

or the same JSON block for Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code (claude_desktop_config.json / .cursor/mcp.json / .vscode/mcp.json):

   {

"mcpServers": { "apple-mail": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["apple-mailbox-mcp"] } } }

  1. Verify: uvx apple-mailbox-mcp status prints one readiness screen — or just ask your client to run the doctor tool; every red line comes with its exact fix. uvx apple-mailbox-mcp --version prints the installed version (apple-mailbox-mcp, apple-mail-mcp and email-mcp are three names for the same command). The first body-index build on a large mailbox runs in the background and can take a few minutes; search works immediately and completes as the index fills.

Before running setup, grant your terminal app Full Disk Access (System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access) — that is how reading stays fast and local. There is no pop-up for this one; it is Apple's one manual toggle, and setup walks you to the exact pane if it finds it missing.

setup asks everything in plain words (bare Enter accepts the recommended answer), offers a sending identity, builds the body-search index, verifies the nightly refresh actually runs, and ends by printing the one block you paste into your MCP client:

{

"mcpServers": { "apple-mail": { "command": "apple-mail-mcp" } } }

Setup ends with a clear ready verdict or numbered recovery steps. Grant Automation → Mail when triage first asks for it. Check the installation, the next scheduled message, and failed scheduled sends anytime with apple-mail-mcp status; use apple-mail-mcp doctor for the full technical detail.

💡 *New to the terminal?* Three things that look wrong and aren't:

brew install pipx wants a typed y (Enter alone is rejected);

pipx ensurepath may print a ⚠️ — the "pipx is ready to go!" line after it

is the verdict; and after ensurepath, close and reopen the terminal once

so apple-mail-mcp is found.

🔌 Works with

Every client below speaks stdio MCP; the command is always uvx apple-mailbox-mcp.

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport stdio --scope user apple-mail -- uvx apple-mailbox-mcp
Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "apple-mail": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["apple-mailbox-mcp"] } } }
Cursor

Add the same block to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or per-project .cursor/mcp.json).

VS Code (Copilot MCP)

Add the same block under "servers" in .vscode/mcp.json.

Codex CLI
# ~/.codex/config.toml

[mcp_servers.apple-mail] command = "uvx" args = ["apple-mailbox-mcp"]

Any stdio MCP client

Point it at uvx apple-mailbox-mcp. The wire contract is additive-only since v1.0.

🔧 Troubleshooting

SymptomFix
Client says the server failed to start, but uvx apple-mailbox-mcp works in your terminalGUI apps don't inherit your shell PATH. Use the absolute path: "command": "/opt/homebrew/bin/uvx" (find yours with which uvx).
database is locked or empty resultsFull Disk Access is missing for the app that *launches* the server (the client, not the terminal). Grant it, then fully quit and reopen that app.
Search finds recent mail but not bodies of old mailThe body index is still building — first build on a 100k+ mailbox takes minutes. status shows progress.
Send fails with transport_unavailableRun doctor: it names the failing lane (Keychain item missing, SSH socket cold, SMTP host unreachable) and prints the exact fix.
Triage does nothing the first timeGrant Automation → Mail when macOS asks; the prompt appears on first use, not at install.
