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

- Grok Bot access with computer and terminal tools
- A LotsMail API key, supplied through secure credential storage
- A LotsMail account. You can create one during sign-in.

## Connect Grok Bot to LotsMail

1. **Give Grok Bot the API reference.** Ask it to read the LotsMail REST reference. It can use the API from its computer.

```
https://api.lotsmail.to/docs
```

2. **Create and securely supply an API key.** Create a key at https://www.lotstech.com/api. Use the agent’s secure credential flow rather than putting a secret in your prompt.

3. **Start with a read-only request.** Ask Grok Bot for something read-only, such as “List my LotsMail mailboxes”, before it changes anything.

## What to ask next

- “What came in for sales@ today? Summarise anything that needs a reply.”
- “Draft a reply to the latest message from the supplier and leave it for me to check.”
- “Find last month’s invoice from our supplier and tell me the amount and due date.”
- “Check whether my last email to Acme was delivered.”

## Questions and troubleshooting

### How do I connect Grok Bot to LotsMail?

Use the LotsMail REST API from Grok Bot’s computer. Create an API key at https://www.lotstech.com/api, configure it privately for the task and share https://api.lotsmail.to/docs with your agent. Ask it for something read-only first.

### Can I connect LotsMail to Grok Bot today?

Use the REST API from Grok Bot’s computer, following the setup above. Create a LotsMail API key, supply it through secure credential storage and share https://api.lotsmail.to/docs with the agent.

### Do I need an API key to use LotsMail with Grok Bot?

Yes. Create one at https://www.lotstech.com/api and keep it out of chats, logs and committed files. Where Grok Bot offers sign-in, use that instead.

### 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 is not in Marketplace

These instructions use the REST API from the agent’s computer. Create an API key and follow the API setup above. You do not need to find LotsMail in Marketplace.

### The agent cannot authenticate

Check API-key permissions and secure credential availability. Never paste the key into a public chat or committed file.
