这是一个基于Gradio的163邮箱MCP服务器,可以作为LLM的工具,用于获取和处理电子邮件。
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install gradio[mcp] bs4 python-dotenv
python email_mcp_server.py
可以通过环境变量来配置邮箱账号信息:
chmod +x start_with_env.sh
./start_with_env.sh
或者手动设置环境变量:
export EMAIL_IMAP_SERVER=imap.163.com
export EMAIL_SMTP_SERVER=smtp.163.com
export [email protected]
export EMAIL_PASSWORD=your_password
python email_mcp_server.py
服务器提供以下MCP工具:

💡 Pro Tips
Architecture
Model Context Protocol standardizes how AI hosts (Claude, Cursor) communicate with external tools and data sources through server implementations.
Protocols
Compatibility
✓ Use when
Use when you need Claude to access external data, execute actions, or integrate with tools. Best for extending AI capabilities beyond conversation.
✗ Avoid when
Avoid when native integrations exist (use official APIs directly), for real-time critical systems, or when security/compliance requires zero external dependencies.
