Gmail MCP: let Claude or ChatGPT read and send your email
Connect your mailbox once and Claude or ChatGPT can search it, read a message, list recent mail and send. It works over standard IMAP and SMTP, so it covers Gmail, iCloud, Yahoo, Fastmail, Zoho or your own mail server.
Free. No card, no password. We email you a link that sets up your account.
What Claude and ChatGPT can do with it
- Search your mail by sender, subject or date, and read a message.
- List recent mail and summarize what needs an answer.
- Send an email. Sending is marked as a write, so your assistant asks you before it goes out.
Try it
Prompt to try:
Summarize my unread email from the last 24 hours, list anything that needs a reply today, and draft the replies without sending.
Email uses your own account, so there is no recorded demo on this page.
Set up in one link
Connect Lodestone, then add your mailbox credentials once in the dashboard. They are encrypted before storage and never logged.
- Sign in with your email above. There is no password; you get a link, and your dashboard shows your connector link.
- In Claude: Customize, Connectors, Add, Add custom connector, then paste the link. In ChatGPT: turn on Developer Mode and add a connector with the link.
- Ask your question in a normal chat.
