# Connect Claude to LotsMail Canonical page: https://lotsmail.to/agents/claude Steps checked: 2026-10-13 Ask Claude to read, search and draft replies in your LotsMail business inbox. Add LotsMail to Claude as a remote MCP server and sign in once. MCP server URL: https://api.lotsmail.to/mcp REST API docs: https://api.lotsmail.to/docs Setup instructions for your agent: https://lotsmail.to/skill.md ## What you can do once connected - Read and search your mailboxes: list conversations by folder, open a whole conversation and find messages by person, subject or text. - Write drafts and reply drafts that wait in Drafts for you to review and send. - Send, reply and send a draft, once you have turned sending on for that mailbox, and check whether each message was delivered. - Mark messages read or unread, star them and move them between inbox, archive, trash and spam. - Start domain setup and show how your domains are paid for. Domains, DNS, team access and agent permissions stay yours, in the dashboard. The LotsMail dashboard does the whole job too: a full inbox on every device, plus domains, mailboxes, team and agent permissions. Your agent for speed, the dashboard for control. ## You need - Any Claude plan: Free, Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise - On Team and Enterprise, an owner adds it once under Organization settings, then Connectors (Add, then Custom, then Web), and each member connects it from Customize, then Connectors - A LotsMail account.

Follow the Claude setup above to add https://api.lotsmail.to/mcp. Complete sign-in using the authentication method shown. Then ask “List my LotsMail mailboxes”. ### Is LotsMail in Claude’s connector directory? Add LotsMail as a custom connector: in Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, select + Add and choose Add custom connector. Paste the MCP URL and sign in to your LotsMail account. ### Do I need an API key to use LotsMail with Claude? No. Claude signs in to LotsMail in your browser. API keys are for the REST API, for scripts and your own apps. ### What does LotsMail cost? Current plans and prices are on https://lotsmail.to/pricing. Your agent’s own plan or usage fees are separate. ### Can my agent send email without me? Only if you turn on sending for that mailbox. Sending is off until you do. With read or draft access your agent can search, read and write drafts that wait in Drafts for you to review and send. ### Which mailboxes can my agent open? Only the mailboxes you can open yourself. For each one you choose what agents may do: read and search, write drafts, or send. Owners do not get private mailboxes by default. ### Can I limit who my agent emails? Yes. A mailbox can be restricted to a list of addresses it may send to, and any other recipient refuses the whole send. Only a workspace owner or admin changes restrictions, in the dashboard. ### Can my agent change my domain or DNS? No. It can start domain setup, which gives you the steps and the dashboard link. Domains, DNS, billing, team access and agent permissions stay with you, in the dashboard. ### LotsMail tools do not appear in a chat Select the + button at the lower left of the chat, open Connectors and switch LotsMail on for that conversation. ### New tools are missing after an update Disconnect and reconnect the connector so Claude reloads the tool list. ## Sources - [Claude: custom connectors](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/11175166-getting-started-with-custom-connectors-using-remote-mcp)
