### Description (declared)

# readNdraft IMAP MCP

Safely search, read, flag, move, and draft email through IMAP. readNdraft can
save and replace MCP-created drafts, but it cannot send, submit, or delete
ordinary mail and contains no SMTP implementation.

## Installation

### 1. Check the prerequisites

You need:

- Windows 10/11 with Windows Credential Manager, or Linux with a working Secret
  Service-compatible keyring.
- An IMAP account that permits password or app-password authentication using
  `LOGIN` or `PLAIN` over implicit TLS. OAuth is not implemented.
- [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/) on `PATH`.
- Codex, ChatGPT desktop, or Claude Code.

Confirm that uv is available:

```console
uv --version
```

No repository clone or permanent readNdraft installation is required. `uvx`
runs the published package in an isolated environment.

### 2. Configure an account

Run guided setup in a real interactive terminal:

```console
uvx readndraft-imap-mcp@0.12.2 setup
```

This configures only readNdraft's local account, credential, and private state.
Claude Code and Codex own their plugin, MCP registration, updates, and removal.
ChatGPT desktop remains a separate manual MCP configuration target.

Linux users should also follow the [Linux platform guide](https://github.com/LeoPhoenixT/readNdraft-imap-mcp/blob/main/docs/INSTALL_LINUX.md)
to verify Secret Service and D-Bus before setup. Windows users can use the
[Windows platform guide](https://github.com/LeoPhoenixT/readNdraft-imap-mcp/blob/main/doc…
