What is bingo-email?
bingo-email is a full-featured email management tool built on Python IMAPClient and smtplib, designed to integrate seamlessly with automated workflows. This skill enables AI agents to perform complex email operations such as reading, sending, replying, and forwarding messages across various providers including Tencent Exmail, Gmail, and Outlook. By focusing on reliability and ease of use, it serves as a robust component within the ecosystem of Openclaw Skills.
The tool is specifically engineered to handle regional requirements, such as the RFC 2971 IMAP ID command required by NetEase 126/163 mail, and ensures Chinese characters remain uncorrupted by using base64 encoding for drafts. It eliminates the need for complex external binary dependencies like himalaya CLI, providing a pure Python solution that is easy to customize and deploy in any developer environment.
bingo-email Use Cases
- Automating email classification and organization into custom folders
- Batch processing of unread messages for summary reports
- Generating AI-powered draft responses for customer service or internal follow-ups
- Managing professional communications across multiple accounts from a single interface
- Integrating email triggers and responses into larger devops or productivity pipelines
How bingo-email Works
- The skill performs a non-interactive environment check using the check command to ensure dependencies and configurations are valid.
- Upon a user request, it establishes a secure connection to the configured IMAP server (using TLS or STARTTLS).
- For reading tasks, it fetches and parses email structures, handling attachments and body encoding (including base64 for special characters).
- For sending or replying, it constructs a MIME message, automatically managing In-Reply-To and References headers for proper thread grouping.
- It interacts with the SMTP server to deliver the message and optionally moves the record to the Sent Messages or Drafts folder.

# Install the core dependency
