What is Email Mail Master?
Email Mail Master is a specialized integration designed to bridge the gap between AI agents and traditional email services. By utilizing this within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, developers can empower their agents to handle complex communication tasks, from sending automated reports with attachments to monitoring inboxes for critical updates. The skill provides a unified interface for multiple Chinese email providers, ensuring high compatibility and ease of use for automated workflows.
This utility is built to be developer-friendly, offering both human-readable and machine-parseable outputs. Whether you are building a personal assistant or an enterprise notification system, incorporating this tool via Openclaw Skills ensures your agent has reliable access to SMTP, IMAP, and POP3 protocols without complex manual configuration.
Email Mail Master Use Cases
- Sending automated status reports or documents as PDF attachments.
- Monitoring inboxes for new messages received within a specific timeframe.
- Bulk cleaning of mailboxes by deleting messages by ID or moving them to trash.
- Integrating email-based triggers into larger AI agent workflows using Openclaw Skills.
- Fetching recent emails in structured JSON format for data extraction and analysis.
How Email Mail Master Works
- The user configures the target mailbox credentials and authorization codes in the local configuration file.
- The AI agent invokes the Python script with specific subcommands like send, receive, or check-new.
- The skill establishes a secure connection to the provider's server (Alibaba, QQ, or 163) using the appropriate protocol.
- For message retrieval, the skill fetches headers and content, optionally formatting the result as JSON for the agent to process.
- For message delivery, it compiles the SMTP payload, handles attachments, and transmits the email to the recipient.
Email Mail Master Setup
To get started with this skill in your Openclaw Skills environment, follow these steps:
- Locate and edit the configuration file at
skills/email/scripts/config.jsonto include your email address and authorization code (not your login password). - Obtain an authorization code from your provider:

- 163 Mail: Settings > POP3/SMTP/IMAP > Enable Service > Set Authorization Password.
